Just set up a proportion
(2/3)=(x/24)
cross multiply both sides
24(2)=3(x)
then solve
48=3x
x=48/3
x=16
16 is the correct answer
She can make 12 pizzas because 24 divided by 8 is 3. And if u multiply 3 by the number of packages (4) you will get 12
M<A + m<B = 180
5y + 9y + 68 = 180
14y + 68 = 180
14y = 180 -68
14y = 112
y = 112/14
y = 8
so
m<B = 9y + 68
m<B = 9(8) + 68
m<B = 72 + 68
m<B = 140
Answer:
They will get both get $280 if they work for 20 hrs.
Step-by-step explanation:
1) In order to solve the problem, we can use a system of equations
2)Aaliyah's salary equation: y=13x+20
Finn's salary equation: y=12x+40
3) Using the equal values method, we now know that 12x+40=13x+20
4) when you solve the equation, x=20.
5) Substitute 20 for x.
y=12X20+40
y=280
