Number of tea bags need to make for every 2 liters of water = 15 tea bags.
For each liter of water there need = 15/2 = 7.5 tea bags.
Peggy need to make 12 liters of iced tea.
<em>Therefore, total number of tea bags required for 12 liters of iced tea = 12 × 7.5 </em>
<em>= 90 tea bags.</em>
Peggy also took 90 tea bags to make a 12-liter batch of iced tea.
<h3>Therefore, correct option is C option.</h3><h3>C It is just right.</h3>
I believe you should do as much work as you can on each of these problems and only then ask for help. You'll almost always learn more by becoming involved in the thinking and problem solving you encounter here.
|x| + 5 = 13 reduces to |x| = 13, so x could be either -13 or +13.
Seven of anything is almost always bigger than five of the same thing.
Multiply both sides by 3
Simplify the numerators
Multiply both sides by 6
Simplify the numerator
Multiply both sides by x
12x - 18 = 15x Subtract 12x from both sides
-18 = 3x Divide both sides by 3
-6 = x Switch the sides to make it easier to read
x = -6
Check your answer by plugging -6 in for the x in the original problem:
Plug in -6 for x
Change
to
so all denominators are the same
Change
to
for easier work
Subtract the numerators (4 - (-1) )
=
So,
x = -6 .
