Answer:
The equation is x= (7.74 /9) 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi, to answer this question we have to analyze the information given:
If 9 pencils cost $7.74, we have to divide the total cost ($7.74) by the number of pencils (9) to obtain the price of 1 pencil.
Now that we have the price of 1 pencil, to obtain the cost of 6 of them we simply multiply the result by six.
Mathematically speaking:
x= (7.74 /9) 6
Where:
x = Cost of 6 pencils in $
Solving:
x = 0.86 x 6 = $5.16

Step-by-step explanation:
if the price of shrimp is twice the price for flounder, you will have twice as much flounder as you have shrimp, so in terms the only answer that applies to this is B.
Answer:
The mean is 20
Step-by-step explanation:
17+19+21+23=80
80 div 4 = 20
It's A.............................
17 = 3(4x - 5)
<em><u>Distributive property.</u></em>
17 = 12x - 15
<em><u>Add 15 to both sides.</u></em>
32 = 12x
<em><u>Divide both sides by 12.</u></em>
x = 2.67. (This is your answer.)
