Answer:
She started with 26 boxes.
Step-by-step explanation:
She started with x boxes. Then she bought 8 more boxes. Now she had x + 8 boxes. Then half the boxes were destroyed, so she has the other half of the boxes. Half of the boxes is (x + 8)/2. She has now 17 boxes, so (x + 8)/2 = 17.
(x + 8)/2 = 17
Multiply both sides by 2.
x + 8 = 34
Subtract 8 from both sides.
x = 26
She started with 26 boxes.
Answer:
4 miles
Step-by-step explanation
If your mom can walk 1 mile in 14 minutes then 2 miles would take her 28 minutes 3 miles would take her 42 minutes and finally if she walked 4 miles it would take her 56 minutes.
14 + 14 + 14 + 14 = 56
14 x 4 = 56
Anyway
so the recursive rule tells the relationship between the previous term and the term we want to find
given
an=2n+11
it is clear that the first term is 13
2nd term is 15
3rd term is 17
each term increases by 2
so
a term is equal to the previous term plus 2
an=a(n-1)+2
the first one is the answer
1 lemon to 2 waters will be proportional to what he Brandon needs so:
1 lemon / 2 water = x lemon / 12 water
Multiply by 12
And you get (1/2)*12 which is 6=x lemons
He needs 6 cups of lemons

So, You cross multiply and get 56x=244(100). Simplify and you get 56x=24400. Divide each side by 56 and you get 435.71. 56% of about 435.71 is 244.
