Answer:

The total \frac{3}{8} lb flour is used to make brownies.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x lb flour is used to make brownies.

She used 1/4 pound more flour to make cookies than to make brownies. So, the total flour is used to make cookies is

x+\frac{1}{4}

she used 1/8 lb less flour to make the bread then to make the cookies. So, the total flour is used to make bread is

x+\frac{1}{4}-\frac{1}{8}

It is given that she used a half pound of flour to make bread.

x+\frac{1}{4}-\frac{1}{8}=\frac{1}{2}

x+\frac{2-1}{8}=\frac{1}{2}

\frac{8x+1}{8}=\frac{1}{2}

8x+1=4

8x=3

x=\frac{3}{8}

Therefore total \frac{3}{8} lb flour is used to make brownies.

Rearrange 3x - 6y = -2 to the form y=mx + c
wel

3x - 6y = -2

-6y = -3x - 2, divide through by -1

6y = 3x + 2, divide through by 6

y = 3x/6 + 2/6

y = x/2 + 1/3
