The number of students in Mr. Boggs’s homeroom is equal to b. Add the total number of students in each class and set it equal to 90.
90 = b + 1.5(b + 2) + 15 + (2b – 9)
Use the Distributive Property, and collect like terms. 90 = b + 1.5b + 3 + 15 + 2b – 9
90 = 4.5b + 9
The answer is 6 hope this helps
16*1.059)=16.944
To the nearest tenth 16.9
2 x 5
2+2+2+2+2= 10
2 x 5= 10
He used 16 oz of dark chocolate........he used 2/5 to make frosting....meaning he used 3/5 for the brownies.
2/5(16) = 32/5 = 6.4 oz for frosting
3/5(16) = 48/5 = 9.6 oz for the brownies
Therefore, he used (9.6 - 6.4) = 3.2 more oz in the brownies then in the frosting
