Question

15 POINTS PLS ANSWER! A bagel shop sells bagels by the half dozen. The table at the right shows the number of bagels a shop gives per ​"half dozen​" ordered. Write an algebraic expression that gives the rule for finding the number of bagels in any number b of half dozens.

Answer 1

Explanation:

y=6x

Dozen=12

Half of a Dozen= 12/2=6

Every half dozen has to be 6 so x would denote that

Answer 2

We can denote the situation as :

`x=6b`

Explanation:

Given table is ;

6 36

7 42

8 48

b ----

Let the bagels in any number of half dozen be denoted by b.

Let the total number of bagels be x

We can denote the situation as :

`x=6b`

here when b = 7, we get x = 42

when b = 8, we get x = 48
