Answer:

16 pieces

Step-by-step explanation:

The total length of ribbon cut off from the 20 pieces is 8*20 because each piece is equal to 8. 8*20=160

The amount of ribbon left afterwards is 400-160 which is equal to 240.

We can do 240 divided by 15 to see how many pieces that we can cut. 240/15=16

Leah loves chicken wings and is comparing the deals at three different restaurants. Buffalo Bills has 888 wings for \$7$7dollar
ella [17]

Cost of chicken wings at Buffalo Bills = 8 wings for $7

Cost of 1 wing at Buffalo Bills = \frac{7}{8} =0.875

Cost of chicken wings at Buffalo Mild Wings = 12 wings for $10

Cost of 1 wing at Buffalo Mild Wings = \frac{10}{12}= 0.833

Cost of chicken wings at Wingers = 20 wings at $17

Cost of 1 wing at Wingers = \frac{17}{20}= 0.850

Hence, comparing all the three costs per wing, we can see that Buffalo Mild Wings is serving chicken wings at lowest price of $0.833 per wing.

On a website selling books, three paperback books and five hardcover books cost $80.10, and seven paperback books and four hardc
Lisa [10]
To answer this kind of question, you need to insert the first equation into second equation or vice versa. The equation from the question should be:

1. 3 paperback books +  5 hardcover book = $80.10
2. 7 paperback books + 4 hardcover book= $100.65

It would be easier to convert the 1st equation into
5 hardcover book = $80.10- 3 paperback books
hardcover book= $16.02- 0.6 paperback books

Then insert it to 2nd equation:
7 paperback books + 4 ($16.02- 0.6 paperback books)= $100.65
7 paperback books + $64.08- 2.4 paperback books= $100.65
4.6 paperback books = $100.65-  $64.08= $36.57
paperback book= $7.95

Insert paperback book price to the first equation to find the hardcover book price
3 paperback books +  5 hardcover book = $80.10
3 ($7.95)+  5 hardcover book = $80.10
5 hardcover book = $80.10 - $23.85= $56.25
hardcover book = $11.25

Then one paperback and one hardcoverbook= $7.95 + $11.25= $19.20
