<h3>
Answer: 60 muffins</h3>
=========================================================
Explanation:
x = some positive whole number
2x = amount Helen baked initially
5x = amount Rebecca baked initially
Notice that the ratio 2x:5x reduces to 2:5 after dividing both parts by x.
So (2x)/(5x) = 2/5
Helen then bakes another 12 muffins, bumping the 2x up to 2x+12. The ratio is now 1:2, which means,
(amount Helen bakes)/(amount Rebecca bakes) = 1/2
(2x+12)/(5x) = 1/2
2(2x+12) = 5x*1 .... cross multiply
4x+24 = 5x
24 = 5x-4x
24 = x
x = 24
From here, we then can say,
- Helen = 2x+12 = 2*24+12 = 48+12 = 60
- Rebecca = 5x = 5*24 = 120
Helen baked 60 muffins and Rebecca baked 120 muffins. We see that 60:120 reduces to 1:2 after dividing both parts by the GCF 60.
Furthermore, note how
- 2x = 2*24 = 48
- 5x = 5*24 = 120
- 48:120 reduces to 2:5 after dividing both parts by 24
This helps confirm we have the correct answer.
Answer:
Given:
POS system = 3,400
useful life = 10 years
salvage value = 400
double declining method means that the depreciation expense is higher in the early years than the later years of the asset.
Straight line depreciation = (3,400 - 400) / 10 yrs = 300
300 / 3000 = 0.10 or 10%
10% x 2 = 20% double declining rate
Depreciation expense under the double declining method:
Year 1: 3,400 x 20% = 680 depreciation expense.
Year 1 book value = 3,400 - 680 = 2,720
Year 2 : 2,720 x 20% = 544 depreciation expense
Year 2 book value = 2,720 - 544 = 2,176

Yes, 6 is one of the terms in the equation
Answer:
Option C. x + 12 ≤ 2(x – 3)
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question, we obtained the following information:
x + 12 ≤ 5 – y .......(1)
5 – y ≤ 2(x – 3) ....... (2)
To know which option is correct, do the following:
From equation 2,
5 – y ≤ 2(x – 3)
Thus, we can say
5 – y = 2(x – 3)
Now, we shall substitute the value of 5 – y into equation 1 as shown below:
x + 12 ≤ 5 – y
5 – y = 2(x – 3)
x + 12 ≤ 2(x – 3)
From the above illustration, we can see that if x + 12 ≤ 5 – y and 5 – y ≤ 2(x – 3), then x + 12 ≤ 2(x – 3) must be true.
Option C gives the correct answer.
