Answer:
166.8 pounds.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let b be the number of batches baked and f be the total weight of flour.
We have been given that a cupcake factory has already used 22.8 pounds of flour today.
They are now making cupcakes that require 8 pounds per batch, so the weight of flour used in b batches will be 8b.
The equation representing the total weight of used flour is given as:
To find the total weight of flour used, when 18 batches are baked we will substitute b = 18 in our given equation.
Therefore, the total weight of flour used in baking 18 batches will be 166.8 pounds.

What Question do you need help with?
I am not really sure but I have a feeling it’s (B.)
Answer:
(a) 412 +A -B
(b) 412 +A -B + (A-20) -(B+14)
(c) 378 +2A -2B
Step-by-step explanation:
Water flowing in adds to the amount in the reservoir. Water flowing out subtracts from the amount in the reservoir.
__
(a) 412 + A - B . . . . at the end of January
__
(b) Flowing in was (A -20), flowing out was (B +14). In February, we start with the amount at the end of January.
(412 +A -B) +(A-20) -(B +14)
__
(c) Simplifying the above, we have ...
412 -20 -14 +2A -2B = 378 +2A -2B
We can write an equation to solve this:
Let x represent amount of Blue Jays.
2x + x = 21
We can simplify the equation:
3x = 21
Divide both sides by 3 to isolate x variable:
x = 7
Therefore, 7 Blue Jays.
