Answer:
22 cookies
Step-by-step explanation:
A dozen items means 12 number of items.
Number of cookies brought by Sherry = No. of containers multiplied by number of cookies in one container
= 2
6 = 12
Number of cookies brought by Sally = A dozen cookies = 12
Number of cookies brought by Sandy = 2
Number of cookies brought by Sherry, Sally and Sandy together = 12 + 12+2 = 26
Total number of cookies to be brought = 4 dozen = 48 cookies
Number of cookies to be brought by Harry = Total number of cookies to be brought - Number of cookies brought by Sherry, Sally and Sandy together
48 - 26 = <em>22 cookies</em>

Direct variation is of the form y=kx. We are given the point (8, -4) so we can solve for k, the constant of variation...
-4=8k, divide both sides by 8
-4/8=k
k=-0.5, so our equation is:
y=-0.5x,
