Answer: 6 donuts

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Cost of donut = $1.50

Cost of cookies = $0.50

Amount to spend = $15

Total number of donut and cookies to buy must not be less than 12

Number of cookies purchased = 10

Maximum number of donuts Blake could buy:

Amount spent on cookies = (10 × $0.50) = $5

Amount left to spend = ($15 - $5) = $10

Maximum number of donuts Blake could buy:

Amount left / cost per donut

= $10 / $1.50

= $6.66

Hence, maximum number of donut would be 6

two years of local internet service cost $685 including the installation fee of $85 what is the monthly fee?
zimovet [89]
2 years is the same as 24 months, so the equation would be:
685 = 24x + 85, where x is the monthly fee.
600 = 24x
600/24 = x
x = 25
The monthly fee is $25.
