6x + 8 = 72

     - 8   -8

6x = 64

6x/6 = 64/6

Answer:

A7.45x = y

Step-by-step explanation:


We can use a ratio to solve this problem.  Take the total cost of the lunches and divide by the number of lunches.

y = total cost of lunches and

x = number of lunches

74.50             y

-------------- = ------------

10                     x


Using cross products

74.5 x = 10 y

Divide each side by 10

74.5/10 x= 10y/10

7.45x = y

Can I have help on this please
irinina [24]

Angles C and D are supplementary, meaning they add up to 180 degrees. So, if we add 8u-48 to 5u+46, we get 13u-2. We set that equal to 180, so 13u-2=180. Add the two, so 13u=182. Divide the 13, so u=14. To double check, plug in 14 to both expressions. 8(14)-48 and 5(14)+46. 8(14)-48 is 64. 5(14)+46 is 116. If you add 64+116, you get 180, which proves your answer right! So u= 14
