Six point eight four.
(Note, you don't say, "Six point eighty-four" As it doesn't sound correct.
Cheers.
You need to combine like terms and subtract 30. How you find the answer is you work the problem first 1. Distribute the 6 (18x+30)-4x=35 then 2. combine like terms 18x and -4x. (14x+30)=35 then 3. Subtract 30 from both sides (14x)=5
The are would be 25
and we could make 3 squares. 75
5inches will be left over.
PART A
s = <span>the number of packets of strawberry wafers ;
c = </span><span>the number of packets of chocolate wafers ;
3 </span>× s + 1 × <span>c = 30 ;
s + c = 22 ;
PART B
</span>The method of solving "by substitution"<span> works by solving one of the equations (you choose which one) for one of the variables (you choose which one), and then plugging this back into the other equation, "substituting" for the chosen variable and solving for the other. Then you back-solve for the first variable.
</span>
c = 30 - 3s;
s + ( 30 - 3s ) = 22;
30 - 2s = 22;
30 - 22 = 2s;
8 = 2s;
s = 4 ;
c = 30 - 12 ;
c = 18 ;
