Answer:
A- X= 20÷5-3
B- 20÷5=4; 4-3=1
C- X=1
Step-by-step explanation:
Okay, well we have to work backwards. 20 cookies, and she makes 5 bags. We need to find out what 'x' means. To do that, we take 20 cookies and divide it by 5. 4 cookies. Then we want to take 3 cookies out of each bag to find out how many cookies she first put in. 1 cookie.
Let's check:
bag 1:
o (one cookie)
bag 2:
o (one cookie)
bag 3:
o (one cookie)
bag 4:
o (one cookie)
bag 5:
o (one cookie)
Now we have 15 cookies left. Now let's put 3 in each:
bag 1:
o (one cookie)
v v v ( three cookies)
bag 2:
o (one cookie)
v v v ( three cookies)
bag 3:
o (one cookie)
v v v ( three cookies)
bag 4:
o (one cookie)
v v v ( three cookies)
bag 5:
o (one cookie)
v v v ( three cookies)
Now we have no cookies left, and we put 4 cookies in each. (o representing the first cookie, v representing the next three cookies)
Answer:
9 cans of tomato soup
Step-by-step explanation:
We are told that only cans of tomato soup and cans of chicken soup are put on the shelf.
Now, we are told that the ratio of the number of cans of chicken noodle soup to the total number of cans on the shelf was 8 to 17.
In fraction, this is 8/17
Now, this implies that there are 8 cans of chicken noodle soup while there are a total of 17 cans on the shelf.
Thus,
Since only cans of chicken noodles and cans of tomato soup are on the shelf, it means;
Cans of tomato soup = 17 - 8 = 9
= x^2 - y^2/6 * 12/(x-y)
= 6x^2 -y^2 * 72/(x-y)
= 6x^2(x-y) -y^2(x-y) * 72
= 6x^3 - 18x^2 -xy^2 + y^3 * 72
= 432x^3 - 1296x^2 -72xy^2 + 72y^3
