Answer: x=2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
First we need to set up and equation
10= 60 - 20x
where x is the amount the cookies cost
subtract 60 from both sides
-50=- 20x
now divide each side by 20 so hat we can isolate the x
-50/-20= x
x= 2.5
now to check just multiply it by 20 then subtract from 60.
2.5 x 10= 50
60-50=10

Answer:
35 1/12 gallons of gasoline
Step-by-step explanation:
so what you're going to do is take both of the fractions (3/4 and 1/3) and convert them into two fractions with the same denominator so you can add them easily. the closest number that you can convert them to would be a denominator of 12, so we would turn 3/4 into its equivalent of 9/12 and 1/3 would now be 4/12. now we add them and get 13/12, which is an improper fraction, so we would change that to 1 and 1/12. and finally, we add 1 1/12 + 1 + 33 and we would get 35 and 1/12 as our final answer :)
