Answer:

C. 4x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

You and three friends= you + 3 friends=4 people

Pizza= 12 pieces

Each person eats equal pieces of pizza

x= number of pieces each person ate

Equation

4x=12

Divide both sides by 4

x=12/4

=3

x=3

Therefore, each person ate 3 pieces of pizza each

Check:

4x=12

4(3)=12

12=12

An online furniture store sells chairs for $50 each and tables for $550 each. Every day, the store can ship a maximum of 32 piec
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

you have to sell 6 tables to meet all requirements

Step-by-step explanation:

chairs=$50x

tables=$550x

24 chairs×50= $1200

4100-1200= $2900

take $2900 and divide by $550 to find the exact number of tables which is 5 but selling 5 tables and 24 chairs doesnt reach the $4100 mark so I rounded up to 6 tables which doesnt surpass the maximum number of furniture(32) but beats the $4100 mark

Mrs. Nally's swimming pool is 10 feet by 6 feet. She paves the area around it with a sidewalk x feet wide, using 80 square feet
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

The sidewalk is 2 feet wide

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the sidewalk is given as 80 square feet

The length and width of pool

including side walks will be;

10 + 2x and 6 + 2x

To get the area of the side walk

That will be area of total minus area of the pool

That will be ;

(10 + 2x)(6 + 2x) - 10(6) = 80

60 + 12x + 20x + 4x^2 - 60 = 80

4x^2 + 32x -80 = 0

x^2 + 8x -20

x^2 + 10x - 2x - 20 = 0

x(x + 10) -2(x + 10) = 0

(x-2)(x + 10) = 0

x = 2 or -10

since width cannot be negative;

The sidewalk is 2 feet wide

The distance between Dallas and Fort Worth on a map is 7.5 centimeters. The map uses a scale in which 1 centimeters represents 3
anyanavicka [17]

Hi There


To find the distance, you have to make them proportional to each other.


1 cent.  / 30 kilo. = 7.5 cent. / x


Then you cross multiply.


30 x 7.5 = x


225 = x


The distance between the two cities is 225 kilometers.


Hope that helps:)
