M represents miles
35+0.10m=25+0.15m
35-25+0.10m=25-25+0.15m
10+0.10m=0.15m
10+0.10m-0.10m=0.15m-0.10m
10=0.05m
m=200
Check:
35+0.10(200)=25+0.15(200)
35+20=25+30
55=55
The solution: m=200 is true.
After 200 miles driven, prices charged by both companies will be the same.
2m + 2p = 16 Subtract 2m from both sides
2p = 16 - 2m Divide both sides by 2
p = 8 - m
Therefore you need 4 batches of cupcakes if you want <u>every person to get one cupcake</u>.
- This means you multiply the amount of salt <em>per batch</em> by the number of batches, to get the total amount of salt you need.
- Each batch contains <em>1 teaspoon of salt</em> for 21 cupcakes. Multiply:
for the whole thing.
Step-by-step explanation:
Create a single fraction in the numerator and denominator.
Apply the division rule of fractions by multiplying the numerator by the reciprocal or inverse of the denominator.
Simplify, if necessary.
