So 1/2 of 3/4 is 3/8 which is equal to 6 cookies ( or 3/8 of a packet has 6 cookies)
So if we say a packet of cookies = X
and we know 8/8 of a packet of cookies = 1 full packet of cookies
( 8/8 of a packet or 1 full packet has X cookies )
Then 3/8 divided by 8/8 = 6/X
3/8 = 6/X
X = 6 divided by 3/8
X = 16
So there should be 16 cookies in a full packet
Answer:
x=4
Step-by-step explanation:
3x+6=2x+10
x+6=10
x=4
C is the correct answer to thus question
To factor this out, I would actually multiply the (x+3)(x-2) first just so that we can have less parenthesis everywhere. Now, the problem is 2(x²+x-6) + 4(x-2). If we expand these parenthesis, we'll get 2x²+2x-12+4x-8. The simplified version of this is 2x²+6x-20, or 2(x²+3x-10). We can factor the parenthesis to 2(x-2)(x+5), which is the final answer.
Hope this helped!
