Answer:

The total cost was $52. Subtracting out the cost of the layer cake ($16) leaves us with $36 to pay for the 24 cupcakes. This means that each cupcake must have cost $1.50 ( = $36 / 24 cupcakes ).

Answer:

Below

Step-by-step explanation:

First let us create an equation for this problem

     (24 cupcakes)( $ of each cupcake) + ( $16 layer cake ) = $52

Let's say that C will represent the $ of each cupcake to make it easier

Solving it....

     24C + 16 = 52

     24C = 36

Divide both sides by 24

          C = 1.5

Therefore, each cupcake cost $1.5

We can check to see if this works....

     24(1.5) + 16 = total cost

            36 + 16 = 52, so this is correct

Hope that helped! Best of luck <3

It would be 82 2/3 since 1/3 minis 2/3 would equal -1/3 you subtract that from 83 and get 82 2/3

Jack was planting a tree. He was to dig a hole that was 3 feet deep for every 5 feet of tree height. How deep should he dig the hole for a tree that is 17feet high. 

Calculations 

\frac{DEEP}{HIEGHT} 

Cross multiplication

\frac{3 DEEP}{5 HIEGHT} = \frac{x}{13} 

5x = 2 x 13 

Divide by 5 to isolate x

\frac{5x}{5} = \frac{51}{5} 

x = 10.2 

Answer = 10.2

Solve for x. 3(3x - 1) + 2(3 - x) = 0 = 0
BARSIC [14]
If you would like to solve the equation 3 * (3 * x - 1) + 2 * (3 - x) = 0, you can calculate this using the following steps:

3 * (3 * x - 1) + 2 * (3 - x) = 0
3 * 3 * x - 3 * 1 + 2 * 3 - 2 * x = 0
9 * x - 3 + 6 - 2 * x = 0
7 * x + 3 = 0
7 * x = - 3    /7
x = - 3/7

The correct result would be - 3/7.
