Francois baked just enough cookies to fill all the orders at his bakery. while the cookies were cooling, a kitchen assistant knocked over a cooling rack and spilled 12% of the cookies onto the floor. francois had to bake 36 more cookies to replace them.
how many cookies were ordered in total?

So we can write

12% of x = 36

12/100 x = 36

x = 36 x 100/ 12

x= 300

So, 300 cookies were ordered in total.

step-by-step explanation:

i think something is missing in your question because y-1=(x-12) would not pass through the point (-4,-3). because if you replace x by -4 your are supposed to find y=-3 which is not the case her. if you replace x by -4 you find =-15.

i assume the right equation is y-1=1/4*(x-12) because this one is passing through both your points (if you are interested to know how i found that out i can tell you).

in this equation if i replace x by -4 i find y=-3 and if i replace x by 12, i find y=1 so the line representing this equation is passing through those 2 points.

then the standard form of the equation is finding an expression of y in function of x

y-1=1/4*(x-12)

y=x/4-3+1

y=x/4-2

hope that .

do you confirm there was a mistake in the question?
