Answer:
-4x + y + 6z
Step-by-step explanation:
2x + 5y - z + (-6x - 4y + 7z) < distribute positive 1 to (-6x - 4y + 7z)
2x + 5y - z - 6x - 4y + 7z < combine like terms to get the answer
2x - 6x = -4x
5y - 4y = y
-z + 7z = 6z
our new expression is:
-4x + y + 6z we cannot simplify this any further, so this is our answer
I don't know what the "six-step method" is supposed to be, so I'll just demonstrate the typical method for this problem.
Let <em>x</em> be the amount (in gal) of the 50% antifreeze solution that is required. The new solution will then have a total volume of (<em>x</em> + 60) gal.
Each gal of the 50% solution used contributes 0.5 gal of antifreeze. Similarly, each gal of the 30% solution contributes 0.3 gal of antifreeze. So the new solution will contain (0.5 <em>x</em> + 0.3 * 60) gal = (0.5 <em>x</em> + 18) gal of antifreeze.
We want the concentration of antifreeze to be 40% in the new solution, so we need to have
(0.5 <em>x</em> + 18) / (<em>x</em> + 60) = 0.4
Solve for <em>x</em> :
0.5 <em>x</em> + 18 = 0.4 (<em>x</em> + 60)
0.5 <em>x</em> + 18 = 0.4 <em>x</em> + 24
0.5 <em>x</em> - 0.4 <em>x</em> = 24 - 18
0.1 <em>x</em> = 6
<em>x</em> = 6/0.1 = 60 gal
Since you are looking for the dollar per hour, can just set the equation up as dollar divided by hour (dollar/hour). You take how much was made ($173.70) and divide it by the hours worked (18 hours).
$173.70/18 = x (x representing how much he makes an hour).
$173.70/18 = $9.65.
Cameroon makes $9.65 an hour.
