Answer: multiply both sides by 3
Step-by-step explanation: That means it would be (3*x)+(3*2)
You can do this by converting this into a ratio or a fraction
Ratio:
1 lb for 4 guinea pigs
1:4
If he was 8 lbs for x guinea pigsit would be
1:4
8:x
Multiply the first ration until the one is equal to 8, then whatever the four turns into is x
Fraction: (easier way)
1/4 (1lb for 4 guinea pigs)
8/x (8lb for x guinea pigs)
1/4 = 8/x
Multiply one until it is equal to 8
Correspond that to the 4
1*8 = 8
4*8 = 32
32 guinea pigs
I’m pretty sure it’s the third option, Bella saves more per chore than Sweet T. If you replace the c in Bella’s equation with 1, it would be 3.5 times 1 which is 3.5 and then add 11 and it would be 14.5 which is more then Sweet T. You can do this with the rest of the numbers and Bella would still have more then Sweet T. Per chore
Here's a trick.
Don't solve all the equations, you're given the answer to x so just substitute.
5/2*8+7/2=3/4*8+14
23.5=20 INCORRECT
5/4*8-9=3/2*8-21
1=-9 INCORRECT
5/4*8-2=3/2*8-4 <- YOUR ANSWER
8=8 CORRECT
