Answer:
5
Step-by-step explanation:
40 divided by 16 = 2.5
2*2.5=5
2 gross finger puppets; 2 gross bookmarks; 4 gross assorted pencils; 2 gross animal erasers; 2 gross foam craft kits; 2 gross glow in the dark stickers.
This gives 14 gross prizes; 14*144 = 2016.
Expecting 225 guests, with 8 prizes per bag = 225*8 = 1800
This gives enough extra for 27 more bags, in case more people than expected show up.

Answer:
x = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
You solve a linear equation by putting the variable on one side of the equal sign and a constant on the other side. Here, variables and constants are on both sides of the equal sign, so you need to separate them.
The basic idea is that you add the opposite of any term you don't want. Whenever you perform any operation (like "add"), <em>you must do it to both sides of the equation</em>.
We observe that x-terms have coefficients of 10 and 9. We choose to add the opposite of 9x to both sides:
10 -9x -5 = 9x -9x +2
x -5 = 2 . . . . simplify
Now, we still have -5 on the left, where we don't want it. So, we add its opposite (+5) to both sides:
x -5 +5 = 2 +5
x = 7 . . . . simplify
The solution is x = 7.

<em>Additional comment</em>
If we were to end up with an x-coefficient other than 1, we would divide both sides of the equation by that coefficient. This will leave the x-term with a coefficient of 1.
Hey You!
1.5 ft = 18 inches
There is no difference between the distance the two animals traveled.
Answer:
decreasing
Step-by-step explanation:
"Increasing" means the graph is going up from left to right.
"Decreasing" means the graph is going down from left to right.
"Constant" means the graph is "flat" (this is not a technical term) it is keeping the same y value, neither going up nor going down.
What can be super confusing is the
(2.2, 5) mentioned in the question. THIS IS NOT A POINT. It is an interval and points and intervals unfortunately have the same notation sometimes.
An "interval" is a section of the graph, here: FROM 2.2 not including 2.2, TO 5 not including 5. These are like the address on the x-axis. If you look at your graph at 2.2 on the x-axis, it is a peak(relative maximum) and it goes down to the right to where x is 5 where it bottoms out (relative minimum) So on that interval, from 2.2 to 5, the graph is DECREASING.
