Answer:

p = −1

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Regroup terms.

−6 (p + 8) = 7p − 35

2. Expand.

−6p − 48 = 7p − 35

3. Add 6p to both sides.

−48 = 7p − 35 + 6p

4. Simplify 7p − 35 + 6p to 13p −35.

−48 = 13p − 35

5. Add 35 to both sides.

−48 + 35 = 13p

6. Simplify −48 + 35 to −13.

−13 = 13p

7. Divide both sides by 13.

−1 = p

8. Switch sides.

p = −1

There is not enough information given in what you have said to find the number of tiles. We need either the area or dimensions of the kitchen to find the information you are looking for.

Answer:

(a) $y=8x+5$

(b) 7 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) Let x be the number of hours and y is the total cost.

We have been given that Beatrice and her friends charge $8 per hour of babysitting, so the charges for x hours of babysitting will be 8x.

As they also charge a mandatory $5 per day fee for each child for snacks, so the total charges for babysit each day will be charges for x hours of babysitting plus mandatory charge.

We can represent this information in an equation as:

$y=8x+5$

Therefore, the equation $y=8x+5$ represents the total cost of using Beatrice’s babysitting service each day.

(b) To find the number of hours Beatrice babysit the daughter, we will substitute y = 61 in our equation and solve for x.

$61=8x+5$
