Answer:
What is the cost of 1 hotdog?
Answer: $4.50
How many hotdogs can you buy for $18?
Answer: 4
Step-by-step explanation:
If $27 can buy you 6 hot dogs, to find the cost of one, we just divide.
27 divided by 6 = 4.5 ($4.50)
So 1 hotdog costs $4.50
If 1 hotdog is $4.50, and we want to know how much we can buy for $18, then we divide again.
18 divided by 4.5 = 4
So for $18, we can buy 4 hotdogs
3×15=15
4×7=28
The only multiple of 10 between these two numbers is 20. 20 does indeed have factors that are odd or even so we can conclude that 20 must be the answer.
Answer: The second term of the expression which is 0.25x is the variable cost which is the extra amount paid for being late.
The expression 2 + 0.25x represents the amount that Ruth paid for the book.
It should be noted that the fixed cost is represented by 2 while the 0.25 represents the variable cost which is the late fee. Also, the x represented the number of days for being late.
In conclusion, the second term of the expression represents the amount that was charged for being late.
