Ricky ate 2 soft tacos, and 4 of his friends ate s soft tacos. If there were 18 2 points soft tacos in all, how many soft tacos did his friends eat if each friend ate
the same amount? Ricky wrote the following equation to find the number
of soft tacos each friendate, 6s = 18. He then found out, from dividing that
each friend ate 3 tacos each. Do you agree/disagree with Ricky's thinking?

Use the following table to answer questions #3, #4, and #5.

Each friend ate 4 tacos.

Step-by-step explanation:

"4 of his friends ate s tacos" is unclear. I assume it should be

"4 of his friends ate s tacos each."

total tacos = 2 + 4s = 18

4s = 16

s = 4

His four friends ate a total of 16 tacos, each friend eating 4 tacos.

Ricky's reason, i.e., that 6s = 18, is incorrect.

6s = 4s+2s, where 4s is what his friends ate in total.

That implies that Ricky ate 2s tacos, instead of 2 tacos. If 2s = 2 then s = 1, but then 6s ≠ 18.

the picture is the step by step explanation.

x= cost per bracelet

number of bracelets * x + shipping charge = total cost

so

9x+9=72
