B) 14.
If you start with subtracting the 8 pages from 50, you get 42 remaining pages. Then it says 2/3 of the REMAINING pages so you divide 42 into thirds. 42/3=14. You want 2/3 of that, so you multiply the 14 by two to get 28 (it's like there are three piles of 14 pages and you want only 2 out of the three piles). So now you've used 28 pages + the original 8. You've used a TOTAL of 36 pages. Subtract 36 from 50 and you get 14 left.
Answer:
C = 6 + 2.5g
Step-by-step explanation:
A local lawn service charges $6.00 per cut plus $2.50 per gallon of gas used.
If in a cut g gallons of gas is used then, the cost for gas used will be $2.5g and there is a fixed charge of $6.00 per cut.
Therefore, in total the cost per cut becomes 6 + 2.5g and if we represent the total cost as C, then we can write
C = 6 + 2.5g. (Answer)
