Answer:

30 waiters

Step-by-step explanation:

the ratio of 5 waiters to 2 cooks

you are given the total number of waiters and cooks = 42

write equation

x (5 + 2) = 42

7x = 42

x = 6

now distribute the x into waiters which is 5x or 5(6) = 30 waiters

additionally 2x is for cooks or 2(6) = 12 cooks; which adds up to 42

jonny [76]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Total fruits needed = 15

Fruits needed :

Apple (m) ; cost = $3 per piece

Oranges (o) ; cost = $2 per piece

Amount spent on fruits :

[(cost of apple * number of apples) + (cost of orange *(total fruits - number of apples)]

3m + 2(15 - m)

3m + 30 - 2m

3m - 2m + 30

m + 30

Amount spent if 6 apples is purchased :

m = 6

m + 30

6 + 30 = $36
