Answer:
960 sprinkles
Step-by-step explanation:
If 24 cookies call for EXACTLY 384 sprinkles, then 16 sprinkles fit on each cookie. 384/24 = 16
If 16 sprinkles fit on each cookie, 16 cookies on 60 cookies would be 960.
60 x 16 = 960
The first thing we are going to do to solve the problem is to define what associative property is:
Associative property Property that is fulfilled if, given any three elements of a given set, it is verified that there is an operation that verifies equality
An expression that meets the definition is:
(x + 3) + 7 = x + (3 + 7)
We observe that both members of equality are identical, but written in different ways.
Answer:
B) (x + 3) + 7 = x + (3 + 7)
I think that using the elimination method is the best, because it is the only method that I use when solving these types of equation. For example, for these two equations, you need to multiply one of the equations by a certain number so that you'd be able to find x and y. The elimination method is the method that tells you to do that. It is also the easiest method.
