Betsy is ordering prizes for a school fair. She must order 2 helium balloons for every 5 people and 3 stuffed animals for every 8 people. Organizers expect 120 people to attend the fair. TRUE OR FALSE: Betsy orders 48 helium BALLOONS

True, she would need to order 48.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you divide the expected number of people (120) by the number of balloons per person (120 divided by 5) then multiply that by 2 you get 48.

(f - g)(x) = 5x^3 - 3

step-by-step explanation:

rearrange these functions vertically, with like terms in separate columns:

f(x) = 5x^3 - 2

g(x) =         +1

now subtract, column by column:

(f - g)(x) = 5x^3 - 3
