Answer:

Number of cookies sold by the Yummy Company = 32.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of cookies sold by the yummy company be x.

Then the number of pies sold by The Chipper Bakery is 3/4 x.

When they have 16, more we have:

Number sold by the Yummy company is x + 16 and the number sold by the Bakery is 5/6 (x + 16)

So x + 3/4x + 2(16) = x + 16 + 5/6(x + 16)

= 7/4 x  + 32 =  11/6 x + 16 + 80/6

7/4 x - 11/6x = 16 + 80/6 - 32

-1/12 x = -2 2/3

x = -8/3 * -12

x = 32.

Answer:

24.1 x 10^4 = 241000 .056 x 10^7 = 560000 507 x 10^-5 = 0.00507

Step-by-step explanation:

for scientific notation, all you need to do is start at the decimal point (or end of whole number) and move over the amount of spaces (the exponent) to the right. if it is a negative exponent, instead of moving to the right, you should move to the left.

for example : 500 x 10^3

when you start from the last zero and move to the right, you need to fill the space with three zeroes.

so 500 x 10^3 = 500,000.

Haley is comparing the cost of a fresh lobster dinner at two different restaurants. The first restaurant charges $29 for the mea
Svetllana [295]

First restaurant price: 29 + 6l = x

x = final cost

l = kilo of lobster

Second restaurant price: 41 + 3l = x

We want them to be the same price, so: 29 + 6l = 41 + 3l

Subtract 3l from each side

29 + 3l = 41

Subtract 29 from both sides

3l = 12

Divide both sides by 3

l = 4

So, if she buys 4 kilograms of lobster from either place, it will cost the same.

It would cost $53.
