Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let y represent students in the class
55% of y = 78
0.55y= 78
y = 142
<span>Let the cost of 2-scoop cones be x, and the cost of sundaes be y.
The first statement tells us that 5x = 3y
The second statement tells us that 9x + 6y = 19.95
Then we need to calculate the value of y (the cost of a sundae).
From our first equation, y = 5x/3. Substituting this into the second equation:
9x + 6(5x/3) = 19.95
9x + 10x = 19.95
19x = 19.95
x = 1.05
Substituting back into the first equation: 5(1.05) = 3y
5.25 = 3y
y = 1.75
Therefore the cost of a sundae is $1.75.

Answer: 3.75z+12
For an equivalent expression, lets simplify the equation.
3/4(5z+16)
multiply both '5z' and '16' by 3/4
3.75z+12
The correct answer is b. -14

Answer:
-6
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
x+14=7x+32−3x
x+14=7x+32+−3x
x+14=(7x+−3x)+(32)(Combine Like Terms)
x+14=4x+32
x+14=4x+32
Step 2: Subtract 4x from both sides.
x+14−4x=4x+32−4x
−3x+14=32
Step 3: Subtract 14 from both sides.
−3x+14−14=32−14
−3x=18
Step 4: Divide both sides by -3.
−3x/−3=18/−3
x=−6
