Answer:
a) The variable, M represents the amount of fish Ms. Montesinos has
b) The set equation is 11 + 2 = 3 × M - 2
c) 5
Step-by-step explanation:
The given parameters are;
The number of fishes in Ms. Cruz's tank = 11 fishes
The number of fishes Ms, Cruz has after buying two more fishes = 3 × The amount of fish Ms. Montesinos has - 2 fishes
a) Let the variable, M represent the amount of fish Ms. Montesinos has
b) The set up equation is as follows;
11 + 2 = 3 × M - 2
c) From the equation, 11 + 2 = 3 × M - 2, we have;
13 = 3·M - 2
3·M = 13 + 2 = 15
3·M = 15
M = 15/3 = 5
M = 5
The number of fishes Ms. Montesinos has is 17 fishes

Step-by-step explanation:
this is the answer in the picture
First, multiply $3 by 4 to get $12 spent on cookies. Then, you multiply $12 by 2 to know that the pies cost $24. You then divide the $24 by 3 to get $6 per pie. Meaning, each pie had cost $6. You add the $12 and $24 together to get $36. Finally, you subtract $36 from $40 to know that she only has $4 left.
