Answer:

x = 9.9

Step-by-step explanation:

12x - 81-2 = 16- 2x

first, combine like terms so,

-81 - 2= -83

12x - 83 = 16 - 2x

now subtract 16 on both sides

12x - 83(-16) = 16(-16) - 2x

12x -99 = -2x

now subtract 12 on both sides

12x (-12) = 99 - 2x (-2)

10x = -99

now divide 10 on both sides

x = 9.9

9) Gabe has a 40¢-off coupon for any kind of popcorn. He can choose

Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

Per ounce better buy is Happy popcorn.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Happy popcorn price for 16 ounces = $1.39

Popper popcorn price for 34 ounces = $2.79

Discount coupon present with Gabe = 40 ¢ = $0.40

To find:

Which brand is the better buy per ounce?

Solution:

First of all, let us calculate the price that Gabe has to pay after the discount coupon being applied.

Price for 16 ounces of Happy popcorn after discount = $1.29 - $0.40 = $0.99

Price for 1 ounce of Happy popcorn after discount = $\frac{\$0.99}{16}$ = $0.062

Price for 34 ounces of Popper popcorn after discount = $2.79 - $0.40 = $2.39

Price for 1 ounce of Popper popcorn after discount = $\frac{\$2.39}{34}$ = $0.070

Clearly, per ounce price of Happy popcorn is lesser than that of Popper popcorn.

Therefore per ounce better buy is Happy popcorn.
