HELP PLEASE!!! Can anyone think of a problem/story that will fit the equation:
0.9(x+5)=27
I already found the answer for x I just need a story/problem to go with it.

Lucy had a total of 0.9 pieces of a cookie, her friend gypsy gave her x pieces of a cookie and her other friend Jacob gave her 5 pieces of a cookie. What does the letter X stand for in this problem?

step-by-step explanation:

when a number is between two straight lines it means the absolute value.

to find absolute value you need to know how many numbers is that number away from 0.

when finding absolute value the number will always come out positive

so absolute value of -3 is 3

absolute value of 3/2 is 3/2

absolute value of -2 is 2

absolute value of 3.5 is 3.5

absolute value of -1 is 1

now put these numbers in order:

a)   |-1|, |3/2|, |-2|, |-3|, |3.5|

gmt is 4 hrs ahead of edt so just add four hours to 1: 14: 20 (minutes and seconds stay the same)

gmt is 5: 14: 20

hope this !
