Joshua is making spaghetti and meatballs for dinner for his friends. Joshua makes 30 meatballs. If Joshua wants 5 meatballs on each plate of spaghetti, how many plates can Joshua make? Write an equation to represent the scenario, and solve.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Let y represent the number of meatballs in total and x represents the number of plates.

per plate

Required

Determine the value of x

To solve for x, we make use of the following expression.

Substitute values for y and Rate

Divide through by 5

Hence, number of plates is 6

points are handed out whenever you post answers.

brainliest answers are handed out by the person asking the question, so whether your answer is picked depends entirely on whether the asker bothers to pick

if you're asking about your rank, it depends on having a certain number of points and a certain number of brainliest answers. for example, at the time of this writing, i have 44338 points out of 15000 needed for the next (nearly triple the requirement! ) but i only have 24 out of 50 required brainliest answers. this number decays, meaning after a certain amount of time (i think about a month), the total number of brainliest answers you've earned doesn't count toward this total. (i've been stuck at the same rank for a long

the lesson to learn here is that you shouldn't worry about points or rank. chances are, no matter how good an answer you may provide, your efforts will go mostly unnoticed unless you focus on the newest/most active questions that get posted.

step-by-step explanation:

because first you have to add the 4x, 9x, and the 7x together and you get 20x and then you add the last numbers up and you get 5and then you put the subtraction sign in there and that's how you get the answer.
