Answer:
The answer is given below
Step-by-step explanation:
a)
Let us assume Patricia baked x number of cakes. She put half of the cupcakes (i.e x/2) equally into 6 big boxes.
6 big boxes contained 
cakes, therefore 1 big box would contain 
cakes.
Let us assume she put the other half into 14 small boxes, therefore each small box would contain 
cakes.
There were 45 cupcakes in 3 big boxes and 8 small boxes altogether. That is:
Therefore Patricia baked 84 cup cakes
b)
She sold all the small boxes and collected $189, i.e she sold 14 small box for $189. Each small box = $189/14 = $13.5

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of hours that Catie babysits.
She spent $26 to make signs to advertise. This means that her total cost is $26.
She charges an initial fee of $5 and then $3 for each hour of service. This means that her revenue for x hours of babysitting would be
5 + 3x
Profit = Revenue - total cost
It means that the revenue must be greater then the total costs for her to make profit. Therefore,
5 + 3x > 26
3x > 26 - 5
3x > 21
x > 21/3
x > 7
She must babysit more than 7 hours in order to make profit.
