3. Olivia ordered 24 cupcakes and a layer cake. The layer cake cost $16 more than one cupcake, and the total cost of the order was $53.50. What was the price of each cupcake?
a) Define a variable for the cost of one cupcake.
b) Write an expression to represent the cost of a layer cake.
c) Write and solve an equation.
d) Interpret your solution within the context of the problem.

$2.14

Step-by-step explanation:

x =  price

24x+(x+16) = 53.5

25x+16 = 53.5

25x+53.5

x=53.5/25=2.14

step-by-step explanation:

there are 36 inches in a yard

25 : 36 = 0.69 yards (you can round to 0.70)

the multiples of 15 are 15, 30,45, 60, 75, 90, 105, 120, 135, 150, 165, 180, 195,   210, 225, 240, 255, 270, 285, 300, 315, 330, 345, 360, 375,   390, 405, 420, 435, 450, 465, 480, 495, 510, 525, 540, 555, 570, 585, 600, 615, 630, 645, 660, 675, 690, 705, 720, and 735.

the factors of 15 are 1, 3, 5, and 15.
