The answer is A. If there are 3 thirds (1/3s) per yard and there are 6 yards, 3*6=18. Because the last cut will make two 1/3-yard segments, the answer is 17 cuts and not 18.
Answer:
25%
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we know that the markdown is $20 by subtracting 80-60 , we find out what percent of 20 is 80. To do that you do 20/80, which is 0.25, or 25 percent.
Answer: she uses 2 eggs for one batch of brownies and 4 eggs for one batch of cookies.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of eggs that she uses for one batch of brownies.
Let y represent the number of eggs that she uses for one batch of cookies.
Last month, she made 2 batches of brownies and 3 batches of cookies. This means that
2x + 3y = 16 - - - - - - - - - -1
The month before, she baked 1 batch of brownies and 1 batch of cookies, which required a total of 6 eggs. This means that
x + y = 6 - - - - - - - - - - - - - 2
Multiplying equation 1 by 1 and equation 2 by 2, it becomes
2x + 3y = 16
2x + 2y = 12
Subtracting, it becomes
y = 4
Substituting y = 4 into equation 2, it becomes
x + 4 = 6
x = 6 - 4 = 2
y = 6x - 4
Substitute the given x values to solve for y.
x = 1:
y = 6(1) - 4
y = 6 - 4
y = 2
1 = 2
x = 3:
y = 6(3) - 4
y = 18 - 4
y = 14
3 = 14
x = 10:
y = 6(10) - 4
y = 60 - 4
y = 56
10 = 56
x y
1 2
3 14
10 56
Answer: 57r + 42
Step by step explanation:
-3r - 6(-7 - 10r)
Distribute -6 through the parenthesis
-3r + 42 + 60r
Collect the like terms
57r + 42
