Cupcakes Promotion All cupcakes at $2 each ! Buy 8 and get 1 free!

How many cupcakes will Fatimah get if she paid $80 during the promotion?

45

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

We see that the cupcakes are $2, but for every 8 you buy you get 1 free.

So, if we buy 8 cupcakes, we will be paying $16, but we will actually be receiving 9 donuts, so that means that for every $16 we pay, we get 9 donuts.

Let's see how many times $16 goes into $80.

80/16=5

So, this means that our $16 that gives us 9 donuts was done 5 times, which totals up to 80 dollars. Let's multiply our donuts now.

9*5=45

So, Fatimah will get 45 donuts during the promotion.

Have a wonderful day and keep on learning! :D

a. she will receive a refund of $278.

step-by-step explanation:

x ≥ 18 is your answer

step-by-step explanation:

let "a number" = x

(2/3)x + 17 ≥ 29

isolate the variable (x). do the opposite of pemdas (parenthesis, exponent (& root), multiplication, division, addition, subtraction).

first, subtract 17 from both sides.

(2/3)x + 17 (-17) ≥ 29 (-17)

(2/3)x ≥ 29 - 17

(2/3)x ≥ 12

next, multiply 3/2 to both sides to isolate the x

(3/2)(2/3)x ≥ 12(3/2)

x ≥ 12(3/2)

simplify. multiply, then divide

x ≥ (12 * 3)/2

x ≥ (36)/2

x ≥ 18

x ≥ 18 is your answer
