Ax + z = aw - y....subtract aw from both sides
ax - aw + z = -y....subtract z from both sides
ax - aw = -y - z....factor out a on the left side
a(x - w) = -y - z...divide both sides by (x-w)
a = (-y - z) / (x - w)

Hi there

ax + z = aw-y

We need to solve for a

Since we have 2 a in the equation we need to eliminate one of them, so let's do it.

So let's add -aw to both sides

ax + z -aw = aw -y -aw

-aw + ax + z = -y

Hint: Every time you see something in a equation that you don't need all you have to do is eliminate it so you can reach where you want to reach.

So as you can see up here, we have z which one of the thing that we don't need so let's eliminate it in the equation

We can eliminate z by adding -z to both sides

-aw + ax + z - z = -y -z

-aw + ax = -y -z

Now we have two common variables which is a, so when you have two common factor all you have to do is factor out

a( w + x ) = -y - z

Now the final step is to divide -w+x to both sides

a(w+x)/(-w+x) = -y-z/ -w+x

a = -y -z / -w+x (Alll the numerator divide by the deno)


I hope that's help..

If you have any questions or suggestions please let me know :)

Sedaia [141]
Answer:
her supply has 18 pounds

Explanation:
Assume that the number of pounds in her supply is x.
We are given that:
She uses 1/3 x in salted mix and 2/9 x in unsalted mix.
This means that:
Total amount used = 1/3 x + 2/9 x = 5/9 x of her supply

Now, we are also given that:
She used 10 pounds of her supply.
This means that:
5/9 x = 10
5x = 9*10 = 90
x = 18 pounds

Hope this helps :)

Answer:

x=67.4

Step-by-step explanation:

well sin30:1/2

So y is not 30 since 5/13 doesn’t equal 1/2

So it’s either the the third or fourth option

And x>y

So option 4 is correct
