I typed right on the problem set.
You can solve this in two ways.
First way:
Let’s find out how many my friend makes in one minute.
12/5=2.4
He makes 2.4 in one minute. Let’s multiply that by 20 to find what he makes in 20 minutes.
2.4•20=48
My friend made 48 desserts.
Second way:
Let’s make a ratio.
12 desserts:5 minutes
X desserts: 20 minutes
Whatever you do to one side, you have to do to the other. Since you are multiplying the minutes by 4, you have to multiply the desserts by 4.
12•4=48
So, my friend made 48 desserts.
Tell me if this helps!!!
I think it is 29%? I am not 100% sure though...
X=numbers of hammers
y=numbers of scewdrivers
f(x,y)= total cost in $
f(x,y)=11x+6.65y
f(4,7)=4(11)+6.65(7)=44+46.55=90.55
Sol: an expresion for the total cost of the tools is f(x,y)=11x+6.65 y;
x=number of hammers
y= number of scewdrivers.
The total cost is $90.55
