Answer:4.5 cups of sugar
Step-by-step explanation:
Okay so 24 cookies is 2 dozen
1 cup of sugar would be used for every 8 cookies
3 dozen is equal to 36 cookies
36/8=4.5 so you would need 4.5 cups of sugar
Second side= x
First side = 2x
Third side = x+5
x+2x+x+5=49
4x=44
x=11
1st side= 22
2nd side = 11
3rd side = 16
No because it only works with addition and multiplication
9+(-6-3)=(9-6)-3 is true tho
9-(6-3)=9-(3)=6
(9-6)-3=(3)-3=0
so not equivilent
Answer:
16
Step-by-step explanation:
So the number of tulips (t) plus the number of daffodils (d) should equal up to 20. So if we write that as an equation, it would t + d = 20. So now we have to find what two numbers could add up to 20, but let's not forget that the number of daffodils is equal to the square root of the number of tulips.
So now we have to find a number when added to its square root is 20. So going by process of elimination, you can eliminate 5 because the square root of that is a decimal and 5 plus a decimal isn't going to add up to 20. You know you can eliminate 20 because it already reaches the limit with the number of tulips, not allowing enough room for daffodils. You can eliminate 4 because the square root of that is 2, and 4 + 2 = 6, not 20.
So that leaves 16... The square root of 16 is 4, because 4 divided by itself twice equals 16. Now, let's add them and see if it equals 20. 16 tulips + 4 daffodils = 20. So 16 is your answer.
Sorry I am bad at explaining things, but I hope this helps anyway!
