Answer:

The required equation is y=3x and number of cookies shared is 15.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Sarah and her 4 friends share some cookies. If each person gets 3 cookies.

To find : How many cookies were shared? Write a mathematical equation that represents this situation.

Solution :

Let y be the number of cookies shared and x be the number of person.

Each person gets 3 cookies.

i.e. 1 person = 3 cookies

So, x person = 3x cookies

Number of cookies shared is y=3x

Now, we have given x=5 (Sarah and her 4 friends)

So, Number of cookies shared is y=3(5)=15

Therefore, The required equation is y=3x and number of cookies shared is 15.

Let C represent the number of cookies shared.
Let 5 represent Sarah and her 4 friends.
C = 5 * 3
C = 15
So, since 5 friends got 3 cookies each, the total number of cookies shared is 15.
The equation will be: C = 5 * 3 or C = 5(3)

The sum of three numbers is 100. The second number is 2 times the third. The third number is 8 less than the first. What are the
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:x+y+z=100(let x ,y,z represent the first second and third numbers respectively)

Therefore,y=2z

z=x-8

y=2x-16

substituting the values of x,y and z into the question,we have

x+(2x-16)+(x-8)=100

Simplifying,we have

4x-24=100

adding 24 to both sides of the equation,

4x=100+24

4x=124

dividing both sides of the equation by the co-efficient of x,we have

4x/4=124/4

4.31=124

therefore,x=31.
