Helen bought 15 chips and 8 pretzels.

Chips and pretzels = 23 snacks
Chips = x
pretzels = 23 - x
chips = $0.25
pretzels = $0.50

$0.25x + $0.50(23-x) = $7.75
$0.25x + $11.50 - $0.50x = $7.75
-$0.25x = $7.75 - $11.50
-$0.25x = -$3.75
-$0.25x/-$0.25 = -$3.75/-$0.25
x = 15  * number of chips.

number of pretzels = 23 - x = 23 - 15 = 8

To check:
$0.25(15) + $0.50(8) = $7.75
$3.75 + $4.00 = $7.75
$7.75 = $7.75

-5t+3= -4<br> please answer this question<br> and show your work also
astraxan [27]

Answer:

t=7/5

Step-by-step explanation:

If you subtract 3 from each side, you end up with -5t=-7. In order to keep t isolated, you would have to divide -5 on both sides. When you do this, you will end up with t= -7/-5. You also need to simplify that. When simplified you end up with t=7/5. Hope this helps!

Sally has 2 cats and each cat eats 1/4 of a tin of cat food each day.
Mashutka [201]

If one cat eats 1/4 of a tin per day then two cats eat 1/2 of a tin per day.

We have 9 tins so if each day cats eat 1/2 we have to divide 9 with 1/2 and we get 18 which is for how many days she can feed the cats until she runs out of food.

Hope this helps.
