The equation representing this situation would be 3 + 2x = c, where c is the total cost.
To find the cost to bring 12 dogs, you will replace the x with the number 12.
3 + 2 x 12 = 27
The cost would be $27.
5/6 of an hour is 50 min. So 50 times 3 equals 150 min for reading. 3/4 of an hour is 45 min. 45 times 2 equals 90 min for science. And 1/2 of an hour is 30 min. So 30 times 4 equals 120 mins for math. Add 150,90, and 120 min all together and you get 360 mins total. Divide 360 by 60, and you get 6 hours total that Michaela spent on reading, math, and science. Not 2 1/2.
79.57 times 12% = 70.02
70.02 times 7.75% = 5.43
70.02 plus 5.43 = 75.43
Although it is warm it is not necessarily really hot that loads of children would not need to be in a paddling pool
