Answer:
28
Step-by-step explanation:
4x + 9x + 8x = 147
21x = 147
x = 147/21
x = 7
========
The shortest side will be 4x
4*7 = 28
the answer is, c) distributive
C= chair cost
t= table cost
Create two equations with the given information. Solve for one variable in equation one. Substitute that answer in equation two. Then you can solve for the needed information.
3c+2t=$18
5c+6t=$48
3c+2t=18
Subtract 2c from both sides
3c=18-2t
Divide both sides by 3
c=(18-2t)/3
Substitute the value for c in equation two:
5c+6t=$48
5((18-2t)/3)+6t=48
(90-10t)/3+6t=48
Multiply everything by 3 to eliminate fraction
(3)((90-10t)/3)+(3)(6t)=(3)(48)
90-10t+18t=144
90+8t=144
Subtract 90 from both sides
8t=54
Divide both sides by 8
t=$6.75 cost for table
Substitute the t value to solve for c:
3c+2t=18
3c+2(6.75)=18
3c+13.50=18
3c=4.50
c=$1.50 chair cost
Check:
5c+6t=$48
5(1.50)+6(6.75)=48
7.50+40.50=48
48=48

Answer
at first I said 1/2 but it's 2/5's.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let "x" represent the weight of the toppings. We know that we can have any number of toppings. This means that one may ask for no toppings at all too.
Now, we have been told that "S" is the weight of the special sundae in kilograms. This definitely included the "mandatory" 2 kilograms of ice cream. Therefore, S will be at-least equal to 2.
Thus, the inequality that describes S, the weight of the special sundae in kilograms at Ping's Ice Cream Palace is given as:
kilograms.
It can be seen that as x increases, S increases too and if an order does not want any toppings in it then the weight of the special sundae will be a minimum of 2 kg which is the weight of the ice cream.
