Answer:
6.25n + 3.50
$34.75
Step-by-step explanation:
Break down the important information given in the problem.
The one-time delivery fee is 3.50. This is only paid one time an never again, making it the <u>constant</u>, a number that does not change.
Each lunch costs 6.25. This amount will increase depending on how many times Mr. Jackson orders lunches, "n" times. This number is the <u>rate</u> because it changes. The rate is attached to the variable.
If you add the amounts together, that is the total cost of ordering lunches.
6.25n + 3.50
(Reember expressions do not have the equal sign).
To find the cost of ordering 5 lunches, use the expression. Substitute "n" for 5 because "n" represents the number of lunches ordered.
6.25n + 3.50
= 6.25(5) + 3.50 Simplify by multiplying 5 and 6.25
= 31.25 + 3.50 Add the two values
= 34.75 Total cost of 5 lunches
Therefore the cost of ordering 5 lunches is $34.75.
According to the question statement, the total sum of students is 221, which includes the students that ride on bus and the students that ride in a van.
The students that ride in a van are five, the students that ride on bus are 6 times s which is the product of the number of buses and the number of students that are on each bus.
Write all this information into an equation, this way:

Now, solve the equation for s to find the number of students that are on each bus.

There are 36 students on each bus.

We need to find what number, if 6 is divided by it, gives us 12.
This isn't hard, I promise! I am going to take you through a few steps, and we'll find the answer.
Are you ready? Then let's begin...:)

✦ We can think about it as: 6 divided by what number gives us 12?
(let the number be z)

Multiply both sides by z

Divide both sides by z

Which is the same as
