Answer:
D. 60
Step-by-step explanation:
4(3x + 3) = 5(x + 8) 12(4) + 12 5(4) + 40
12x + 12 = 5x + 40 48 + 12 20 + 40
-5x -5x 60 60
7x + 12 = 40
-12 -12
7x = 28
x = 4
Twenty-one thousand and sixty-three divided by three is 7021
First, take any number (for this example it will be 492) and add together each digit in the number (4+9+2 = 15). Then take that sum (15) and determine if it is divisible by 3. The original number is divisible by 3 (or 9) if and only if the sum of its digits is divisible by 3 (or 9).If a number is a multiplication of 3 consecutive numbers then that number is always divisible by 3. This is useful for when the number takes the form of (n * (n - 1)*(n + 1))Example: 492 (The original number). 4 + 9 + 2 = 15 (Add each individual digit together). 15 is divisible by 3 at which point we can stop. Alternatively we can continue using the same method if the number is still too large: 1 + 5 = 6 (Add each individual digit together). 6 ÷ 3 = 2 (Check to see if the number received is divisible by 3). 492 ÷ 3 = 164 (If the number obtained by using the rule is divisible by 3, then the whole number is divisible by 3)

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.
