The borders are shown in the picture attached.
As you can see, starting with border 1, we have 6 daises (white squares) surrounded by 10 tulips (colored squares). Through Jerry's expression we expected:
<span>8(b − 1) + 10 =
</span>8(1 − 1) + 10 =
0 + 10 =
10 tulips.
When considering border 2, we expect:
<span>8(b − 1) + 10 =
</span>8(2 − 1) + 10 =
8 + 10 =
<span>18 tulips.
Indeed, we have the 10 tulips from border 1 and 8 additional tulips, for a total of 18 tulips.
Then, consider border 3, we expect:
</span><span>8(b − 1) + 10 =
</span>8(3 − 1) + 10 =
16 + 10 =
26<span> tulips.
Again, this is correct: we have the 10 tulips used in border 1 plus other 16 tulips, for a total of 26.
Therefore, Jerry's expression is
correct.</span>
3/8 of a pizza.
If you divide each pizza into eight parts, each member would receive 1/8 of one pizza. Since there are three pizzas, each member would receive three 1/8 of a pizza, or 3/8.
You can prove this answer by multiplying 3/8 by 8, to get 24/8 simplified to 3.
I think c. 10100÷ (12 x 4)
Noah has 75 marbles. Noah has more marbles. this is because 34 times 3 is equal to 102. since michelle takes 9 marbles from EACH box, 9 times 3 is 27. 102 minus 27 is 75
A + s = 480......s = 480 - a
8a + 5s = 2892
8a + 5(480 - a) = 2892
8a + 2400 - 5a = 2892
8a - 5a = 2892 - 2400
3a = 492
a = 492/3
a = 164 <=== there were 164 adult tickets sold
