Answer:

14

Step-by-step explanation:

First, take away the 8 cookies that were not part of the 3 boxes.

(50 - 8 = 42)

Now we know that 3 boxes of cookies can hold 42 total cookies. However, we need to know how much cookies 1 box can hold. If the 42 cookies are divided evenly between the 3 boxes, our equation would look like this:

42/3 = 14

Therefore, the answer is 14 cookies in each box.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

3b+8c=50c

3b=50c-8c

3b=42c

b=14c

So there are 14 cookies in each box.

Store had a sale on our supplies the price p of each item was mark down 60% which expression represents the new price
vlada-n [284]

Answer:

0.4p or p-0.6p

Step-by-step explanation:

We use percents in decimal form to multiply it with the price. We convert percents into decimals by dividing the percent number by 100. For example, 78% divided by 100 becomes 0.78.

There are two ways to look at it:

  • For finding the price we pay during a sale, we focus on the percent we pay. If 60% off is the sale, then we spend 40% or 100-60=40. 40% is 0.40. Multiply that by p an unknown price and we have 0.4p.
  • We can find the percent off by multiplying the price by the percent conversion. So 60% is 0.60. Then subtract it from the original price to find the leftover that we pay. This is p-0.6p.

andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

(-1,-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Midpoint equation: (\frac{x_2+x_1}{2}, \frac{y_2+y_1}{2})

= (\frac{-5/2+1/2}{2},\frac{-1/2-3/2}{2} )

= (\frac{-2}{2},\frac{-2}{2})

=(-1,-1)

Use the formula and plug it in :)
