Answer:
Hey there! The answer to your question will be below.
Step-by-step explanation:
The correct answer to your question is 12x - 24=60
So we know that 12x will be the number of cookies.
It says that she kept two boxes for herself, and than she took away 24 boxes which will leave us with 60.
Here is the work:
12 (x-2)= 60
12x-24=60
So the answer should be 12x -24 = 60
Hope this helps!

Answer:
Each cookie costs $1.30
Step-by-step explanation:
7x+2=11.10
Subtract 2 from both sides
7x=9.10
Divide both sides by 7
x=1.30

Answer:
BC ≈ 17.0 (neither Crow nor Toad is correct)
Step-by-step explanation:
The left-side ratio of (2+4)/4 = 3/2 suggests BC is 3/2 times the length DE. If that were the case, BC = (3/2)(11) = 16.5, as Crow says.
The right-side ratio of (5+9)/9 = 14/9 suggests that BC 9 is 14/9 times the length DE. If that were the case, BC = (14/9)(11) = 154/9 = 17 1/9 ≈ 17.1, as Toad says.
The different ratios of the two sides (3/2 vs 14/9) tell you that the triangles are NOT similar, so the length of BC cannot be found by referring to the ratios of the given sides.
Rather, the Law of Cosines must be invoked, first to find angle A (109.471°), then to use that angle to compute the length of BC given the side lengths AB and AC. That computation gives BC ≈ 16.971. (See the second attachment.)
