Answer:
z = - 0.78
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
1/3(6z+7.2)=0.5(8z+2)-0.4
Open parenthesis
2z + 2.4 = (4z + 1) - 0.4
2z + 2.4 = - 1.6z - 0.4
Collect like terms
2z + 1.6z = - 0.4 - 2.4
3.6z = -2.8
z = -2.8 / 3.6
= - 0.78
Alright so one dozen cookies is 12 cookies. So 40 dozen cookies is 480 cookies (40x12). If there’s 157 students then u divide 480 by 157 which gets u 3.06 cookies per person
Hi the answer to your question is
((3y - 3.5) / (3y + 6)) * 25.5 = (17
/ 25.5) * 25.5
((3y - 3.5) / (3y + 6)) * 25.5 = 17
(76.5y - 89.25) / (3y + 6) = 17
((76.5y - 89.25) / (3y + 6)) * (3y +
6) = 17 * (3y + 6) 76.5y - 89.25 = 51y + 102 76.5y - 51y = 102 + 89.25
25.5y = 191.25
y = 191.25 / 25.5
<span>y = 7.5</span>
