You can solve this using proportion.
5 = 4
7 = ?
7(4)/5= 5.6
7 cakes cost £5.6
Answer: 66
Step-by-step explanation: Basically you want to find the area of the whole shape and the white shape, which the whole shape is 96 and the white shape is 30, and subtract 96-30=66
The answers to the questions are:
1. x = 4
2. x = 1.5
3. x = 1.875
4. x = 1
<h3>2 step equation:</h3>
1. 4x + 3 = 19
4x = 19 - 3
4x = 16
divide by 4
x = 4
<h3>2 step equation w/ fractions:</h3>
(4/3)x + 5 = 17
= 1.33x + 5 = 7
Take like terms
1.33x = 7-5
1.33x = 2
divide through by 1.33x to get 2
x = 2/1.33
x = 1.5
<h3>3. Distributive Property:</h3>
4x(6 - 2) - 10 = 20
Multiply and open the bracket
24x - 8x - 10 = 20
Take like terms
16x = 20+10
16x = 30
x = 30/16
= 1.875
<h3>4. Decimals:</h3>
4.3x + 0.7 = 5
4.3x = 5 - 0.7
4.3x = 4.3
x = 1
