Let's use algebra to solve this problem. Let x be the number of glasses of lemonade Chandler sold.
Since he charges $0.50 per glass, he made $0.50*x = $24.
Dividing both sides of the equation by $0.50, we get x = $24 / $0.50 = <<24/0.50=48>>48.
Therefore, Chandler sold 48 glasses of lemonade.
The answer is D. 48
To find out how many glasses of lemonade Chandler sold, we need to divide the total amount he made ($24) by the price per glass ($0.50):
24 ÷ 0.50 = 48
Therefore, Chandler sold 48 glasses of lemonade.
The answer is D) 48.
To find out how many glasses of lemonade Chandler sold, we can use the formula:
Total earnings = Price per glass * Number of glasses sold
In this case, we know the total earnings are $24 and the price per glass is $0.50.
So, we can rearrange the formula to find the number of glasses sold:
Number of glasses sold = Total earnings / Price per glass
Number of glasses sold = $24 / $0.50
Number of glasses sold = 48
Therefore, Chandler sold 48 glasses of lemonade.
The answer is D) 48.

The equation 8x + 6 = 38 represents situation A.
In situation A, Albert earns $4 per hour to walk the dogs, and earns an additional $6 for giving them a bath once a week. The equation 8x + 6 = 38 represents this situation because it is stating that the total earnings ($38) are equal to ($4 per hour * x hours) + $6.
If the absolute value of x is 4, what is the value of x?
Responses
A -16 or 16-16 or 16
B -4-4
C -4 or 4-4 or 4
D 4
The absolute value of x represents the distance between x and zero on the number line. Since the absolute value of x is 4, this means that x is either 4 units to the right of zero or 4 units to the left of zero.
Therefore, the value of x can be either -4 or 4.
The answer is C) -4 or 4.
If Jaalan takes the number of marbles he has and multiplies it by 5 and then subtracts 10, he gets 275. Write an equation and solve to see how many marbles Jaalan has.

Let's call the number of marbles Jaalan has "x".
According to the given information, if Jaalan multiplies the number of marbles he has by 5 and then subtracts 10, he gets 275. We can write this as the equation: 5x - 10 = 275.
To solve this equation, we can first add 10 to both sides of the equation: 5x = 285.
Next, we divide both sides of the equation by 5 to solve for x: x = 285 / 5 = 57.
Therefore, Jaalan has 57 marbles.
The correct answer is B) 57.
