Question

Due tomorrow I need the answer for this problem. Please help

Answer 1

Your equation is correct.


`C(x) = (10)/(3) x`

Now to find the number of mints, let C(x) equal 180 and solve for x.


`C(x) = (10)/(3) x`


`180 = (10)/(3) x`


`540 = 10x`


`54 = x`


`x = 54`

Answer: There are 54 mints in the box.

Answer 2

180 divided by 10 which is 18. 18 is the answer.
