4. Change the sign of the integer
<u>Answer:</u>
The total number of whole cups that we can fit in the dispenser is 25
<u>Solution:</u>
It is given that the height of each cup is 20 cm.
But when we stack them one on top of the other, they only add a height of 0.8 to the stack.
The stack of cups has to be put in a dispenser of height 30 cm.
So we need o find out how many cups can fit in the dispenser.
Since the first cup is 20 cm high, the height cannot be reduced. So the space to fit in the remaining cups in the stack is only 30-20 cm as that’s the remaining space in the dispenser
So,
30 - 20 = 10 cm
To stack the other cups we have 10 cm of height remaining
As we know that addition of each adds 0.8 cm to the stack, the total number of cups that can be fit in the dispenser can be calculated by the following equation. Let the number of cups other than the first cup be denoted by ‘x’.
10 + 0.8x = 30
0.8x = 20
x = 25
The total number of cups that we can fit in dispenser is 25

Answer: t = 7</h3>
===========================================================
Explanation:
If we replace every copy of x with t, then we go from this
F(x) = 3x+5
to this
F(t) = 3t + 5
All we've done really is change the letter. We still are dealing with a variable. We're told that F(t) is equal to 26, which would allow us to replace the "F(t)" with "26" in the second equation above.
So we now have the equation 26 = 3t+5 which is the same as 3t+5 = 26
Let's solve for t
3t+5 = 26
3t = 26-5 .... subtract 5 from both sides
3t = 21
t = 21/3 .... divide both sides by 3
t = 7 is the answer
Now note that...
F(t) = 3t + 5
F(7) = 3*7 + 5 .... replace t with 7
F(7) = 21 + 5
F(7) = 26
This means we got F(t) = 26 when t = 7
It's the same as saying x = 7 leads to F(x) = 26.
This helps confirm we have the correct answer.
