A/2-b/3=1 solve for a, add b/3 to both sides
a/2=1+b/3 which is equal to
a/2=(3+b)/3 multiply both sides by 2
a=(6+2b)/3 now you can substitute this into 2a+3b giving you:
2(6+2b)/3 + 3b which is equal to
(12+4b+9b)/3
(13b+12)/3

Answer:
George made the first mistake by multiplying by 7 instead of 8
Step-by-step explanation:
The total cars needed to have a mean of 24:
24 x 8 = 192
Total cars sold during the seven months:
18 + 22 + 26 + 12 + 25 + 20 + 19 = 142
Subtract the total cars sold from the total cars needed:
192 - 142 = 50
George needs to sell 50 cars in the eight month in order to have an average of 24 cars sold per month.
Work in amount of pure acid let x = gallons of pure acid required.
then we have the equation:-
x + 55(0.6) = 0.80(x + 55)
x + 33 = 0.80x + 44
0.20x = 11
x = 11/0.2 = 55 gallons answer
