Mathematics

Arlecino [84]4 years ago

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

We need to think, 28 / 42 = x / 54.

We need to do a proportion for this problem!

First, line up both fractions, then put a equal sign between both fractions.

28 / 42 = x / 54.

We multiply in a diagonal and then we divide by the one without a diagonal.

28 and 54 are a diagonal.

We multiply both numbers!

54 x 28 = 1,512.

Then, we divide by 42.

1,512 / 42 = 36.

Therefore, x = 36.

Sandy charges each family that she babysits a flat fee of 10$ for the night and an extra 5$ per child kimmi charges 25$ per nigh
Rudiy27
Sandy's cost equation is y = 5x + 10 where y = cost and x = number of children.
Kimmi's cost equation is y = 25 where y = cost.
The fees are the same when x = 3 in other words when Sandy babysits 3 children.
That is found by solving 5x + 10 = 25 for x.
Subtract 10 from each side: 5x = 15
Divide by 5 on both sides: x = 3

You can set this up as 5(3+4)....then, distribute by multiplying the terms in parentheses by 5. This gives you 15+20, which equals 35.
