Answer:

2 sticks of butter

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's figure out how many cookies you can make with one stick of butter. So, we can divide 3 by 3 and 24 by 3...

$\frac{3}{3} = 1\$

$\frac{24}{3} = 8$

Now that we know that 1 stick of butter makes 8 cookies, we can multiply the amount of cookies till it becomes 16...

8×? = 16

We could rewrite this equation as division...

16÷8 = 2 sticks of butter

Now we know that we need 2 sticks of butter for 16 cookies...

Hope this Helps!!!

21 Last year Chelsea and Sonya took 236 pictures during Thanksgiving. This year Chelsea and Sonya each took the same amount of p

Leokris [45]

Let 'c' represent the number of pictures Chelsea took.

Let 's' represent the number of pictures Sonya took.

For last year's Thanksgiving, c + s = 236

For this year's Thanksgiving, let 'x' represent the number of photos taken in total. x = c + s, where c and s are two integers that are the same (c = s).

And we know that for both years, c + s + x = 500.

As we know that c + s is already 236 from last year, we can remove c + s from the equation in bold and replace it with 236 instead.

236 + x = 500.

Now we have to isolate the x term.

x = 500 - 236

x = 264.

We know that x = c + s, where c and s are the same, so we can just use one of the variables and double it (so you either get 2c or 2s - it doesn't matter which one you pick because they're both the same).

2c = 264

c = 132

c = s

s = 132.

Both took 132 pictures this year.

Mr. Young is offered an investment opportunity. Kyra says she will invest his money at a 6% simple interest rate over the next 7

gregori [183]

Answer:

$126

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Investment is done as per Simple interest.

Principal = $3000

Time for which the investment is to done = 7 years

Rate of interest = 6%

To find:

Interest earned when the investment matures?

Solution:

Formula for Simple Interest :

$Simple\ Interest = \dfrac{PRT}{100}$

Where $P$ is the principal amount

$R$ is the Rate of Interest

$T$ is the time for which the investment is made

Putting the given values:

$Simple\ Interest = \dfrac{3000\times 6\times 7}{100}\\\Rightarrow Simple\ Interest = \dfrac{12600}{100}\\Simple\ Interest = \$126$

Therefore, the answer is:

Interest earned is <em>$126</em>.
