A general equation to use for this situation is y = mx + b.
For this question, we can assume that y is total cost, m is cost per balloon, x is the amount of balloons, and b as the service fee; so we can set the equation up:
y = (4.50)x + 12
And we can further plug in the total cost to find the number of balloons purchased for the party:
79.50 = (4.50)x + 12
Now we can solve for x (number of balloons):
67.50 = (4.50)x
x = 15
The total number of balloons purchased for the party is 15.
Answer:
Angle A = 102°
Angle B = 51°
Angle C = 27°
Step-by-step explanation:
angle A = 2b
angle B = b
angle C = 1/3 b + 10
Angle A + Angle B + Angle C = 180
2b + b + 1/3 b + 10 = 180
3 1/3 b + 10 = 180
10/3 b = 170
b = 51
a = 2b = 102
c = 1/3 b + 10 = 1/3 (51) + 10 = 17 + 10 = 27
4 = 2 * 2
Multiplying by 2 is the same a doubling.
Since 4 is 2 * 2, to multiply a number by 4, double the number twice.
Example:
What is 4 * 100?
Double 100 to get 200.
Double 200 to get 400.
Therefore, 4 * 100 = 400.
By doubling twice, we do the same as multiplying by 4.
1 pound = 16 ounces
6 ounces each pie
36 mini pies to make
36 × 6 = 216 ounces needed to make 36 mini pies
216 ÷ 16 = 13.5 pounds
if each can of pumpkin is 2 pounds,
13.5 ÷ 2 = 6.75 so that would be 7 cans of pumpkin
