Answer:

4 bags of chips

Step-by-step explanation:

1 bag                     x bags

-----------------= -------------------------

5 people            18 people

using cross products

1 * 18 = 5 * x

18 = 5x

divide by 5

18/5 = x

3 3/5 =x

but we can't buy 3/5 of a bag of chips so we round up

4 bags of chips

LenKa [72]

If Connie spent $26 on 8 books, The number of hard covers she buy is 5 hard cover.

<h3>Number of hardcover bought</h3>

Let h represent hard cover

Let p represent paperbacks

Formulate an equation

h + p= 8.......(1)

4h + 2p= 26......(2)

Multiply equation (1) by -2

-2h + -2p = -16

<u> 4h  +  2p   = 26</u>

2h  +   0p =10

2h = 10

Divide both side by 2h

h=10/2

h =5 hard covers

Paper backs

P=5-2

P=3 paper backs

Therefore If Connie spent $26 on 8 books, The number of hard covers she buy is 5 hard cover.

Jordan already knew 2 appetizer recipes before starting culinary school, and he will learn 2 new appetizer recipes during each w
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

w=2r

r= w/2

r- w/2 = 0

w -2r= 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Let w be the number of weeks and r be the number of recipes learnt . So he will learn 2 recipes each week .Equating gives

w=2r

when w= 1

w= 2(1) = 2

For 1st week 2 recipes are learned

when w= 2

w= 2( 2) = 4

For 2nd week 4 recipes are learned.

or

when r= 2

r= w/2

r =2/2  = 1  one  recipe is learned in half of the week  

r- w/2 = 0

or

w -2r= 0
