<span>Using the information we have
3x+4=40
Do the same to each side of the equation to eliminate for x.
3x+4=40 Minus 4 from each side
3x=40-4
3x=36
Divide 3 from each side
x=36/3
x=12
AC=3x+4
insert the value of x
3(12)+4=40
AC=40
AD=20</span>
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Total number of boxes of cookies that Kendal bought to bring to the party is x.
Each box contains 12 cookies. This means that total number of cookies in x boxes would be
12 × x = 12x
She decides to keep two boxes for herself. This means that the total number of cookies that she kept for herself would be
12 × 2 = 24 cookies
She brings 60 cookies to the party.
The equation that can be used to find the number of boxes, x, Kendal bought would be
12x = 24 + 60
12x = 84
x = 84/12 = 7 boxes
Clare would need 80 of fish, (1/3 of 240 is 80.)
Ian would need 200g of butter (If you find the amount of each ingredient needed for a one person-pie, and multiply them by the amount of people you need to feed, you will get your answer.)
We know that 80g of butter is used for 6 people, so by dividing 80 by 6, we know that for a one person-pie, you would need 13.33g of butter. Multiply 13.33 by 15 to find out how many grams of butter he would need for a pie for 15 people.
Answer:
first y then x because y represents 22 and x represents 4 a week.
