Answer:
x-25 = 40
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of cookies made = x
The employees bake 40 cookies which is 25 less than the number of donuts they make
Number of Cookies is less than Number of Donuts by 25
Therefore the equation that describes the situation is given as:
x-25 = 40 where x is the number of cookies made.
44 because it goes into 2 and also goes into 11
(-7,1) is a solution to the inequality y<0.5x+9
#15(A)
First Bike
$380 - $190 ($380 * 0.50) = $190
2nd Bike
$380 - $114 ( $380 * 0.30) = $266
$266 - $53.20 ($266 * 0.20) = $212.80
#15 (B)
Eliza should buy the first bike because it is cheaper. $190 < $212.80
#16
$57 + $28.50 ($57 * .50) = $85.50
Answer:
c. 5x - 3 = 125
Step-by-step explanation:
Mrs. Jones deducts $3 from each of her 5 children's allowances this week because they didn't finish their chores. They then received a total of $125 in allowance. a. 5(x - 3) = 125
b. 5x - 15 = 125
c. 5x - 3 = 125
d. 5x = 140
Solution:
Let x represent the allowance for each of Mrs. Jones children. Since she deducts $3 from each children because they didn't finish their chores, the allowance for each child becomes x - 3.
There are 5 children, hence the allowance for the 5 children would be:
5(x-3)
Since they received a total of $125 in allowance, hence:
5(x-3) = 125
5x - 15 = 125
5x = 125 + 15
5x = 140
Option c is wrong
