The total number of cookies baked by grandma = 96

Number of grandchildren = 8

As given, all cookies were evenly divided among 8 children, let us assume that everyone except Cindy got equal share. So on being divided equally, it becomes, \frac{96}{8}=12 cookies per children.

But, as mentioned that Cindy received 'c' cookies less, so let us suppose Cindy received 'x' cookies.

Expression becomes: x=12-c

Hence, Cindy received 12-c cookies.

15x - 10 = -9x + 2 <br> please help me !!!!!
DerKrebs [107]
15x - 10 = -9x + 2

15x +9x -10 = -9x + 9x + 2

15 x + 9x - 10 + 10 = 2 + 10

15 x + 9 x = 2 + 10

24x = 12

24x/24 = 12/24

x = 1/2

hope this helps

svetlana [45]
9x-30 I’m pretty sure!
We are finding the difference, which means subtract! Nine times a number would be 9x and since it’s difference you would subtract it by 30.
