Answer:

3.95(3) + 8.95b = 47.65

11.85 + 8.95b = 47.65

Subtract 11.85 from both sides.

8.95b = 35.8

Divide 8.95 from both sides.

b = 4

Hugh bough 4 books.

Step-by-step explanation:

3.95(3) + 8.95b = 47.65

11.85 + 8.95b = 47.65

Subtract 11.85 from both sides.

8.95b = 35.8

Divide 8.95 from both sides.

b = 4

Answer:63 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The scale of creation is 2:9

The width of the toy wheel is 14 cm

Suppose x is the actual width of the truck

$\therefore \dfrac{2}{9}=\dfrac{14}{x}\\\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{9}{2}\times 14=63\ cm$
