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)

densk [106]
A) What's the volume of this fish tank? Show all work and express your answer as a mixed number in its most simplified form!
 By definition we have that the volume of a rectangular prism is given by:
 V = (w) * (l) * (h)
 Where,
 w: width
 l: long
 h: height
 We then have to replace the values:
 V = (7) * (5.5) * (2.5)
 V = 96.25 in ^ 3
 Equivalently:
 V = 96 1/4 in ^ 3


 B) Could this fish tank hold 100 in³ of water? Answer yes or no, then explain why in one or more sentences.

 No, this fish tank could not hold 100 in³ of water.
 This is because the prism volume (part A) is less than 100 in ^ 3.
 In other words;
 96 1/4 in ^ 3 <100 in ^ 3
