Stacked cups are placed in a pantry, one cup is 3.25 in high and each additional cup raises the stack by 0.25 inches. how many cups fit between two selves 14 inches apart?

So your equation is 14 inches = 3.25 + .25x

i would solve \[3.25+.25x=14\] for \(x\) then add one at the end for the first cup

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Solve for x. x= number of cups -1 (which was the initial cup)
