2x can represent the starting cost for a cookie.

5 can represent what goes to the boy scouts.

13 means the total amount of money you are paying.

Question:

Boy scouts sell cookies for x dollars. It costs $2 to start because that is labor of making the cookie. In addition to that, you need to pay $5 so it can go to supporting them. In total, you pay $13. How much money did you pay for cookies?

Solution:

2x + 5 = 12

~Subtract 5 to both sides

2x = 7

~Divide 2 to both sides

x = 3.5

Therefore, the cookie cost $3.50 each.

Best of Luck!

Given the list of numbers, 3, 2, 6, 3, 9, 5, 12, 7, if the pattern continues, what is the sum of the ninth and tenth numbers?
LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Every other one beginning with the first 3 adds 3 to the preceding number that has an odd position.

So the odd positions go up 3 6 9 12

And the next odd position is 15 which is the nineth term.

It's hard to tell what the even ones are doing. It could be anything just about. I'm guessing its a 9. So the tenth term is 9.

The sum of 9 and 15 = 24

If someone gives you a more consistent answer, take it.

Is 1/2 an irrational number?
Vinvika [58]

Answer:

Yes, 1/2 is a irrational number

Step-by-step explanation:

This is the answer because (Google research):

A number is rational if we can write it as a fraction where the numerator and denominator are both integers. However, numbers like 1/2, 46485928/2628242, and -3/7 are also rational, since they are fractions whose numerator and denominator are integers.

Hope this helps!
