2×9= 18

18÷9= 2

Answer: 2 cups of fruit punch.

----------

Explanation: so, you divide. why do I know this? because it doesn't say "times," (multiplication word) "more than," (addition word) "less than/ left over." (subtraction word) so what your looking for is "equally," and "each."

So, can you do 2÷9? no, you cant. so you have to multiply 2×9 to get the answer. and what's the answer? 18!

so, now, can you divide 18÷9? yes!! why? because you can only divide big numbers like 18. and you can't divide small numbers like 2 or 9. do you get what I'm saying?

so, what's 18÷9? 2!!


I hope this helps! :) if you still don't understand it just please let me know :)

The 60$ system had a greater percentage decrease because it was a lower number to begin with. Taking the same portion out of two different numbers will always be a greater decrease for the lower number.

×WILL MARK AS BRAINLIEST×<br>Solve the equation for b, d and x
Lera25 [3.4K]
Solve for d:
(3 (a + x))/b = 2 d - 3 c
(3 (a + x))/b = 2 d - 3 c is equivalent to 2 d - 3 c = (3 (a + x))/b:
2 d - 3 c = (3 (a + x))/b
Add 3 c to both sides:
2 d = 3 c + (3 (a + x))/b
Divide both sides by 2:
Answer: d = (3 c)/2 + (3 (a + x))/(2 b)


-----------------------------

Solve for x:
(3 (a + x))/b = 2 d - 3 c
Multiply both sides by b/3:
a + x = (2 b d)/3 - b c
Subtract a from both sides:
Answer:  x = (2 b d)/3 + (-a - b c)

____________________________


Solve for b:
(3 (a + x))/b = 2 d - 3 c
Take the reciprocal of both sides:
b/(3 (a + x)) = 1/(2 d - 3 c)
Multiply both sides by 3 (a + x):
Answer: b = (3 (a + x))/(2 d - 3 c)
