Let x be the price of a cupcake.
There are 24 cupcakes so it will be 24x.
Solution:
24x+16=52
24x=52-16
24x=36
Divide both sides by 24
X=1.5.
The price of each cupcake is 1.5$
It’s negative by the looks of it.
If you solve it you get -2.5
I hope it’s correct!
Let x = the number.
"increased by" tells you we are adding.
"twice a number" tells you 2 times a number.
16 + 2x = - 24
Subtract 16 from both sides so that we have the variable on one sides and the constants on the other.
2x = - 24 - 16
2x = - 40
Divide by 2 to isolate the variable.
x = - 40/2 = - 20
Your solution is - 20.
To check your answer, plug in.
16 + 2(-20) = - 24
16 - 40 = - 24
- 24 = - 24
