Answer:
the answer is 12 attendees
Step-by-step explanation:
Let a=the attendees & Let d=the cost
if the budget is $97 and the cost of the gala is represented by the equation d=7a+13, substitute the $97 for d
d=7a+13
97=7a+13
now take subtract 13 from both sides
97-13=7a+13-13
since the 13 cancels out on the right side it'll now read:
84=7a
to get a by itself you now divide 7 from both sides getting a by itself
84/7=7a/7
12=a
so the answer will be 12
Cross multiply...
Thus,
x(x+4)=(x+12)(x+8)
expand...
x^2+4x=x^2+8x+12x+96
Simply both sides of the equation.
x^2+4x=x^2+20x+96
simply further by adding ask like terms...
-16x=96
Solve for x by making x the subject.
therefore
x=-6.
20-19= 1 1% had decrease answer is -1%
For 1 cookie, cup of flour needed = 5
so, for 144, it would be: 144 * 5 = 720
Then, final answer is 720
