Answer:

4 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the time taken for them to have the same number of strawberries be x minutes.

<u>Initially</u>

Ruby: 10 strawberries

Sapphire: 30 strawberries

<u>After x minutes</u>

Ruby: (10 +3x) strawberries

Sapphire: (30 -2x) strawberries

Since we let x minutes be the amount of time that has passed when they have the same amount of strawberries,

10 +3x= 30 -2x

Bring all x terms to one side, constant to the other:

3x +2x= 30 -10

Simplify:

5x= 20

Divide both sides by 5:

x= 20 ÷5

x= 4

∴ It will take 4 minutes.

Answer:

  the number of cookies ordered

Step-by-step explanation:

When an equation is written in the form ...

  (left variable) = (some expression involving one or more right variables)

we usually describe the "left variable" as the "dependent variable" and the "one or more right variables" as the "independent variable(s)".

Here, the equation is given as ...

  C = 3s + 30

__

This tells you C is the dependent variable, and s is the independent variable. The description also says "C is the number of cookies." Since you know that the dependent variable is the number of cookies, you can answer the question ...

  the dependent quantity is the number of cookies ordered.  (matches the first choice)
