Answer:

the number of cakes sell is 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the number of cakes sold is shown below;

Let us assume

The cake be C

And, the pie cost be P

Given that

There is two types of baked goods sold

The cost of the cake is $4

And, the cost of the pie cost is $64

Now the store sold 9 baked goods for a total of $44

So, the equation would be

C + P = 9

P = 9 - C ...... (1)

4C + 6P = 44............(2)

Now put the value of P in equation 2

4C + 6(9 - C) = 44

4C + 54  - 6C = 44

-2C = -10

C = 5

And, P = 4

hence, the number of cakes sell is 5

Please explain to me how 3.2÷4=0.8 is done
DedPeter [7]

To make it easier just assume there is no decimal point then just work out the 32÷4 where we know that 4 goes into 32 8 times so you get 8 remember the decimal point and since it was one decimal place you will push the decimal over to the left of 8 and that is how you get 0.8

2. Four less than six times a number is 32. Write and solve an equation.
zhenek [66]

Answer:

6x - 4 = 32. The variable (times a number) is equal to 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

So this equation is basically asking you to formulate an equation using only the words given. For this equation, let's use a variable in place of the part where it says "times a number." When a question says that phrase, that means that they are telling you to use a variable in place of a mystery number. A variable is a letter in place of a mystery number. Knowing this, let's now solve the equation. We will use the variable x in place of our mystery number.

Four less than 6 times a number: 6x - 4 _ __.

Now we can add the equal sign and the 32: 6x - 4 = 32.

We can now solve. Add 4 to both sides of the equation to cancel out the -4:

6x - 4 = 32

    <u>+4   + 4</u>

6x  =    36

Now we divide 6 into both sides of the equation to single out the x.

<u>6x = 36</u>

6      6

36/6 = 6, so:

x = 6

I hope that this helps.
