Answer:
x
5
Step-by-step explanation:
First choose a variable to represent the number,
Let's call it
x
We need to divide that number by
5
x
÷
5
or
x
5
is how you write it as an expression.
Answer:number of cupcakes sold is 13
Number of cookies sold is 27
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of cupcakes that Jane sold.
Let y represent the number of cookies that Jane sold.
Each cupcake sold for $2.25 and each cookie sold for $0.50. At the end of the day, Jean had sold $42.75 worth of cookies and cupcakes.
This means that
2.25x + 0.5y = 42.75 - - - - - - - - - -1
she sold 40 cupcakes and cookies combined, it means that
x + y = 40
Substituting x = 40 - y into equation 1, it becomes
2.25(40 - y) + 0.5y = 42.75
90 - 2.25y + 0.5y = 42.75
- 2.25y + 0.5y = 42.75 - 90
- 1.75y = - 47.25
y = - 47.35/-1.75
y = 27
x = 40 - y
x = 40-27 = 13
.
9 x 2 = 18
6 x 3 = 18
and 18 x 1 = 18
Answer:
75th term in the sequence is 227.
Step-by-step explanation:
75 term of A.P is
a_75= a+ (n-1)d
Given series is 5,8,11,14.
hence a= 5 d= 8-5 = 3 , a_75.
a_75 = 5+(75-1)3
= 5+ (74)3
= 5 +(222)
= 227
