The equation we can use is
3 + 1/4c = 9
To find the total number of pieces, we would just solve the equation.
3 + 1/4c = 9
3 - 3 +1/4c = 9 - 3
1/4c = 6
inverse of division is multiputcation
4/1 *1/4c = 6*4
c = 24
There were 24 pieces of cake in total.
Answer:
0.6
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that there are 5 counters in total. 3 white and 2 black.
So we know that 3 out of 5 are white and 2 out of 5 are black.
Therefore the chance to get white is 3/5. And for black: 2/5.
We can turn these into decimals, 3/5 = 0.6 (You can make it 6/10 to make it easier.)
And 2/5 = 0.4 (You can make it 4/10 to make it easier.)
Answering the question, you should put your cross/marker on 0.6
for the first one it is the second option because of one property of logarithms:
log(a)-log(b)=log
for the second one using the same property we can say that we third option is correct and not the second one but we use one more property of the logarithm
loga(b)^x=xloga(b) the power of the logarithm becomes a fator and
is equal to 
The answer is: " 40 books " .

Explanation:
____________________________________________
Let "x" equal the number of books that Jill started with. Solve for "x" :
____________________________________________
x – (1/2)x + 16 = 36 ;
1x – (1/2)) = (1/2)x ;
(1/2)x + 16 = 36 ;
Subtract "16" from EACH SIDE of the equation:
(1/2)x + 16 – 16 = 36 – 16 ;
(1/2)x = 20 ;
Multiply each side of the equation by "2" ;
2*(1/2)x = 20 * 2 ;
to get: x = 40 .
