The number of mini pancakes that can be made from 2/3 of butter is 9 approximately.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given:

Let the amount of butter be x

According to the question,

Amount of butter required to make a pie = Amount of butter required to make

                                                                       14 mini pies

However, nicole just has \frac{2}{3}x of the butter

So if Nicole has \frac{2}{3} of butter then the number of mini pancakes made = \frac{2}{3} X 14

                                                                                                                  = 9.3

Therefore, number of mini pancakes that can be made from 2/3 of butter is 9 approximately.

The mistake is in Step 1. The solver should have also squared 9 when squaring the other side of the equation.

<h3>Correctly solving</h3>

\begin{aligned}\sqrt{3x+6}&=9\\(\sqrt{3x+6})^2&=9^2\\3x+6&=81\\3x+6-6&=81-6\\3x&=75\\\frac{3x}{3}&=\frac{75}{3}\\x&=25\end{aligned}

Chan receives a bonus from his job. He pays 30% in taxes, gives 30% to charity, and uses another 15% to pay off an old debt. He
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

Chan's Bonus amount was $2400.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the Total amount receive from bonus be 'x'.

Given:

Chan pays 30% in taxes;

So we can say;

Amount paid in taxes will be equal to 30% of total amount receive

framing in equation form we get;

Amount paid in taxes = \frac{30}{100}x=0.3x = 0.3x

Now Given:

Chan pays 30% in Charity;

So we can say;

Amount paid in charity will be equal to 30% of total amount receive.

framing in equation form we get;

Amount paid in Charity = \frac{30}{100}x=0.3x

Also Given:

Chan pays 30% in old debts;

So we can say;

Amount paid in Old debts will be equal  30% of total amount receive

framing in equation form we get;

Amount paid in Old debts = \frac{15}{100}x=0.15x

Money left with him = $600

Now we can say that Total Amount Receive in bonus will be equal to Amount paid in taxes plus Amount paid in charity plus Amount paid in old debts plus amount left.

framing in equation form we get;

x=0.3x+0.3x+0.15x+600\\\\x= 0.75x +600\\\\x-0.75x=600\\\\0.25x=600\\\\x=\frac{600}{0.25} = \$2400

Hence Chan's Bonus amount was $2400.

Please help me solve this I need some help
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

f = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. Apply the distributed property, so it now looks like this: 2f - 10 = 6
  2. Add 10 to each side, so it now looks like this: 2f = 16
  3. Divide each side by 2 to cancel out the 2 next to f. It should now look like this: f = 8

I hope this helps!
