1) C is because it’s exactly double the size in both width and length while the others are only gaining one or the other. For example - the a length of the squares is 5 and the length on c is 10, the base on a is 3 long, the base on c is 6. The width on a is 1 and the width on c is 2. You can put these into fractions 5/10 3/6 1/2 but they all equal 1/2. So it’s double the size of a.

The key to solving word problems is in translation: turning word into math
Below is a general approach to most/any word problem
1. Read through the whole question once, without lingering over details, to get some sense of the overall problem
2. identify and label the variables or unknowns in a way that makes it easy to remember what they stand for.
3. translate the problem into one or more equations, sentence by sentence, and be careful of the order in which you translate the terms
4. solve the equation(s)
5. check your work
Answer:
12 dimes and 18 nickels
Step-by-step explanation:
Equations given by word problem:
n + d = 30
0.05n + 0.1d= 2.10
How I solved them:
d= 30 - n
0.05n + 0.1(30 - n)= 2.10
0.05n + 3 - 0.1n= 2.10
-0.05n= -.09
Divide both sides by -0.05
n= 18
18 + d = 30
d= 12
A = 8B
A + B = 180
8B + B = 180
9B = 180
B = 20
A = 8 * 20 = 160
Answer:
4 attendees
Step-by-step explanation:
we can create and equation (x is the amount of attendees) $8 per attendee at a total of $32 is 8x=32 which you divide on both sides getting x=4 or 4 attendees
