Libby wants to make cookies for her whole class. There are 36 students in her class. The recipe Libby is going to use only makes 12 cookies. How many batches of cookies is Libby going to have to make to feed her whole class?
36/12
1/2 it's a fifty fifty unless the guys are complete idiots
So, it says x + y = -2
we just plug in the numbers so,
2 + - 4 = -2
This equation is true and can also be written as
2 - 4 = -2
It also then says that 2x - y = 8
Again, you just plug in the numbers
2 * 2 - (-4) = 8
This equation is true and can also be writen as,
2*2 + 4 = 8
Answer:
18.7 wreaths
Step-by-step explanation:
Beverly makes wreaths to sell for the fall season. She picked 430 pine cones from the wooded area near her house. If she uses 23 pine cones per wreath, how many wreaths can she make?
From the above question:
23 pine cones = 1 wreath
430 pine cones = x wreaths
Cross Multiply
23 pine cones × x wreaths = 430 pine cones × 1 wreath
x wreaths = 430 pine cones × 1 wreath/23 pine cones
x wreaths = 18.695652174 wreaths
Approximately = 18.7 wreaths
Answer:
y=19.2
Step-by-step explanation:
Here as y is proportional to x
so

When y = 12 , x = 5
We have
12 = 5k

So now we have
y=2.4x
When x = 8
y = 2.4(8)
y = 19.2
