+x on each side. Then -2 on each side. Then divide both sides by 6 and you have your answer
#2: 4 cans : $2.36 = 13 : $7.67 SCALE FACTOR: $7.67 divided by $2.36 = 3.25
Use the SF to multiply the missing information.
So 4 cans x 3.25 = 13
YOU CAN BUY 13 CANS FOR $7.67
#4: 2 eggs: 1 1/2 cups of eggs : 10 pancakes = : : 35 pancakes
SCALE FACTOR: 35 pancakes divided by 10 pancakes= 3.5
Use the SF to multiply the missing information
So: 2 eggs x 3.5 = 7
7 EGGS WILL BE NEEDED TO MAKE 10 PANCAKES
#6: 54 pounds: 1 acre = pounds: 12.5 acres
SCALE FACTOR: 12.5 divided by 1 acre= 12.5
Use the SF to find out the mussing information
So, 54 pounds x 12.5 = 675 pounds
THE FARMER CAN HARVEST 675 POUNDS WITH 12.5 ACRES OF FIELD
#8: 90 miles: 120 minutes (5 hours) = 225 miles : 300 minutes (5 hours)
SCALE FACTOR: 225 miles divided by 90 miles = 2.5
Use the SF to figure out the missing information
So, 120 minutes multiplied by 2.5 = 300 minutes (5 hours)
IT WILL TAKE 5 HOURS TO DRIVE 225 MILES
Answer: Daria earns a fixed amount of $55 for each television.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let a represent the fixed amount that Daria earns for each television.
Daria earns a fixed amount for each television and an additional $25 if the buyer gets an extended warranty. This means that if she sells b televisions with extended warranties, the total amount that she would earn is
ab + 25b
If Daria sells 14 televisions with extended warranties,she earns $1,120. Therefore,
14a + 14 × 25 = 1120
14a + 350 = 1120
14a = 1120 - 350
14a = 770
a = 770/14
a = 55
Answer: 
or 
Step-by-step explanation:
We can convert from mixed numbers to decimal numbers:
Since they cleaned up 8.2 kilograms of trash in one neighborhood and 11.5 kilograms in another neighborhood, the total trash they cleaned up was:
We know that they sent 1.25 kilograms to be recycled. Then, in order to calculate how many kilograms of trash they threw away, we must subtract the total kilograms of trash they cleaned up and the kilograms they sent to be recycled.
Then:
or
1. x=-5
2. x=10
3. x=4
4. x=5
5. x=8
6.x=10
