Answer: $17.55
Step-by-step explanation:
36 x 0.65 = $23.40 total for all cookies
($23.40/1) x (3/4) = (70.2/4)
70.2 divided by 4 = $17.55
or
$23.40 x .75 = $17.55
The linear equation has an equal signed involved and the expression doesn’t.
The probability that 1 girl and 2 boys will be selected is given by:

The correct answer choice is B. 1/2.
1. Let x = #
2. "Five less than six times a number" can be written as: 6x - 5
3. "is at least" is the same as "greater than or equal to" and can be written as: >=
4. "nine subtracted from two times that number" can be written as: 2x - 9
5. the equation is: 6x - 5 >= 2x - 9
6. solve for x by grouping the x variable terms on one side and the constants on the other side:
6x - 5 >= 2x - 9
-2x +5 -2X +5
4x >= -4
7. divide each side by 4, and you get: x = -1
