Answer:
Since Paula has her own business of making cakes for special occasions, and the total price (P) of one of Paula's cakes is represented by the equation P = 0.75S +10, where S is the number of people the cake serves, for determine what does the 0.75 represent in this situation and what does the 10 represent in this equation, the following mathematical reasoning must be carried out:
P is the price of the cake
S is the number of servings
Therefore, 0.75 is the value of each serving, which can be variable (the number of servings can vary)
In turn, 10 is the fixed cost of each cake.
First you need to divide 64 by 75 and then multiply by 100 which is 85.3% which then you need to find the average of the 2 which will be (85.3+x)/2=88 where x= the value of the second test.
Then you will need to isolate the x with the following steps:
- multiply each side by 2 making it 85.3+x=176
- Subtract 85.3 from each side
- this results in 90.7
Answer:
x = 102
z = 21
Step-by-step explanation:
x and 78 are same side alternate exterior angles, so they are supplementary.
x + 78 = 180
x = 102
5z - 27 and x are a linear pair, so they are supplementary.
5z - 27 + x = 180
5z - 27 + 102 = 180
5z = 105
z = 21
