Answer:

Use all the given information:

Price of a slice in $ - x

Number of slices- 3

Total cost of slices- 3x

Price of chopped cheese in $-  2+x

Number of chopped cheeses- 4

Total cost of chopped cheeses- 8+4x

Total cost- 7x+8

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that the price of a slice is x and that Dashaun bought 3 slices.

So to find the total amount paid for slices, multiply the price by the number of slices:

$3*x=3x$

We are told that the price of chopped cheese is $2 more than a slice. Use y as the cost for chopped cheese:

$y=2+x$

Dashaun bought 4 chopped cheeses.

To find the total cost of chopped cheeses bought, multiply the cost per cheese by the amount of cheese purchased:

$4y$

Insert the value of y:

$4(2+x)$

Use the distributive property:

$8+4x$

This is the total cost for the chopped cheeses.

To find the total of lunch, add the prices for the slices and cheeses together:

$T=3x+8+4x\\\\T=7x+8$

The total cost for lunch is 7x+8

:Done

In this line of circles, the ratio of red circles to blue circles is 1:3 How many more circles would need to be added to make th

zaharov [31]

Answer:

The number of red circles to be added would be equal to 8 times the original amount of red circles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the number of red circles

y ----> the number of blue circles

Originally

$\frac{x}{y}=\frac{1}{3}$

$y=3x$ ----> equation A

How many more circles would need to be added to make the ratio of red to blue 3:1

Let

n ----> the number of additional red circles

$\frac{x+n}{y}=\frac{3}{1}$ ----> equation B

substitute equation A in equation B

$\frac{x+n}{3x}=\frac{3}{1}$

solve for n

$x+n=9x\\n=9x-x\\n=8x$

therefore

The number of red circles to be added would be equal to 8 times the original amount of red circles

Find the perimeter of a rectangle with length 6 units and width 4 units. wa

agasfer [191]

Answer:

The perimeter of the given rectangle = 20 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of the rectangle = 6 units

The width of the rectangle = 4 units

Now Perimeter of the Rectangle = 2 ( LENGTH + WIDTH)

⇒Here, perimeter = 2 ( 6 units + 4 units ) = 2 x ( 10 units)

= 20 units

Hence, the perimeter of the given rectangle = 20 units.

2. Construct Arguments An ostrich runs 6 miles

Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

At a constant speed of 0.5 miles per minute, the ostrich can run 20 miles in 40 minutes. The unit rate is 0.5 miles per minute.

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance run by the ostrich = 6 miles

Time the ostrich takes to run this distance = 12 minutes

Speed of the ostrich = Distance / Time

Speed of the ostrich = 6 miles / 12 minutes = 0.5 miles per minute

How far the ostrich could run in 40 minutes?

If the ostrich run 0.5 miles per minute, this is the formula:

Speed of the ostrich * 40 minutes = Distance

0.5 miles/minute * 40 minutes = 20 miles (Minutes is simplified in the numerator and the denominator on the left side)

At a constant speed of 0.5 miles per minute, the ostrich can run 20 miles in 40 minutes. The unit rate is 0.5 miles per minute.
