Answer:

The equation representing the number of purses Ceirra has is c=3+\frac{1}{2}\times a.

Ceirra has <u>9</u> purses in her collection.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Cierra has three more than 1/2 as many purses as Asia.

Solution,

Let the number of purses Cierra has be 'c'.

And also the number of purses Asia has be 'a'.

Now according to question, Cierra has 3 more than 1/2  purses as Asia has.

Framing in equation form, we get;

c=3+\frac{1}{2}\times a

Hence The equation representing the number of purses Ceirra has is c=3+\frac{1}{2}\times a.

Now we solve the equation;

Since Asia has 12 purses.

So we substitute the value of 'a', and get;

c=3+\frac{1}{2}\times12=3+6=9

Hence Ceirra has <u>9</u> purses in her collection.

Mrs. Jacobs is making several batches of cookies and is using 84 total ounces of chips. The cookies have chocolate chips and pea
WARRIOR [948]

The ounces of chocolate chips used by Mrs Jacob is 70 ounce

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that Jacob is making several batches of cookies and is using 84 total ounces of chips

Let "c" be the ounces of chocolate chips

Let "p" be the ounces of peanut butter chips

To find: ounces of chocolate chips used by Mrs Jacob

Given that There are 5 times as many ounces of chocolate chips as peanut butter chips

<em><u>Thus we can frame a equation as:</u></em>

ounces of chocolate chips = 5 x ounces of peanut butter chips

c = 5p -------- eqn 1

Jacob used 84 total ounces of chip. Therefore,

ounces of chocolate chips + ounces of peanut butter chips = 84

c + p = 84 ---- eqn 2

Substitute eqn 1 in eqn 2

5p + p = 84

6p = 84

<h3>p = 14</h3>

Substitute p = 14 in eqn 1

c = 5(14) = 70

<h3>c = 70</h3>

Thus the ounces of chocolate chips used by Mrs Jacob is 70 ounce
