Answer: 4

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Information Given
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Entree = $4.75
Addition items = $1.25 each

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Define x
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Let the number of addition item be x

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Construct equation
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
9.75 = 4.75 + 1.25x

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Find x
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
9.75 = 4.75 + 1.25x

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Subtract 4.75 from both sides
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
5 = 1.25x

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Divide by 1.25 on both sides
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4 = x

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: The customer ordered  4 additional items

Hello!

ANSWER:

4 additional items were ordered.

EXPLANATION:

First, subtract the cost of the entree:

9.75 - 4.75 = 5

This means that the customer spent $5.00 on on additional items.
Each additional item costs $1.25. Divide:

5 ÷ 1.25 = 4

zvonat [6]

Answer:

You will get 500g of sugar syrup.

Can someone please help me out<br> ASAP I WILL GIVE OUT BRAINLY
SashulF [63]

Answer:

x = 9

Perimeter = 74

Area = 342

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find x. to do so, set your formula up as

18 = 8x - 54

18 + 54 = 8x

72 = 8x

72/8 = x

9 = x

Now that you have x, find your missing side

2x + 1 = y, x

2 * 9 + = y

19 = y

Your perimeter is P = 2(l+W)

P = 2(18 * 19)

P = 74

Your area is A = wl

A = 19 * 18

A = 342
