Answer:
0.75 cups of ice cream
x bowls
t is the total number of cups of ice cream
.75x = t
example"
If you have 5 bowls.
.75 (cups of ice cream) * 5 (bowls) = 3.75 cups of ice cream needed
Step-by-step explanation:
If you type in both the coordinates it’ll give you the answer on google. That’s how I did this.
-2x+14 is the same as 14 - 2x
Let's say you started off with $14. If you want to buy a soda worth $2, then you have 14-2 = 12 dollars left. If you buy two sodas, then you spend 2*2 = 4 dollars with 14-4 = 10 dollars left.
In general, buying x sodas will cost you 2*x dollars and you have 14 - 2x dollars left over. The x is simply a placeholder for a whole number. For example, if x = 3, then...
14 - 2x = 14 - 2*3 = 14 - 6 = 8
meaning buying 3 sodas cost you $6 and you have $8 left over.
If y is the amount left over, then we can say y = 14 - 2x which is equivalent to y = -2x+14
note: graphing this equation will go through the two points (0,14) and (7,0) as shown in the image below. A graph is handy to help see various points on the line. Each point represents the amount of sodas you can buy (x) and the amount left over in your pocket (y). Keep in mind that neither x nor y can be negative, so it only makes sense to restrict the graph.
Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
This can be solved by working backwards.
7 is one more than half the number of invitations.
Subtract 1. 6 is half the number of invitations.
Double.
12 is the full number of invitations.
Algebra (if you must!):
x = number of invitations
x/2 + 1 = 7
Subtract 1.
x/2 = 6
Multiply by 2.
x = 12
