This is the concept of algebra, to calculate the proportion of wool in each item we proceed as follows;
Let the amount of wool used for hat be x
amount of wool in sweater will be 5x
the amount of wool used in scarf will be x-5
therefore the total amount of wool will be:
x+5x+(x-5)=550
x+5x+x-5=550
7x-5=550
7x=550+5
7x=555
hence;
x=555/7
x=79
the amount used in hat x=79g
amount used in sweater 5x=395g
amount used in scarf=79-5=74g
Answer:
m = 7h + 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Since m is representing the total amount of money he earned, we will leave that on one side. If h is the number of hours we worked, the coefficient of h is 7 because he earns 7 dollars an hour. The ten dollar tip is independent from the variables.
Answer:
y = 3x -5
Step-by-step explanation:
6x - 2y = 10
-6x. -6x
Inverse Operations
-2y = -6x + 10
÷-2. ÷-2. ÷-2
y = 3x - 5
Answer:
Well......
Step-by-step explanation:
Well if you subtract 2x from 7x, you get 5x. If you subtract 5x from 10x, you get 5x. When you Do that to both formulas, you end up with the same formula: 5x=-6.
ANSWER: 
EXPLANATION:
We can use the slope formula and input the x and y values to solve for the slope.
The slope of the line is
