X = wheat, y = corn, z = oats

3x + 2y + z = x + 5z
2y + z = 26
y = 10 .........corn weighs 10 lbs

2y + z = 26
2(10) + z = 26
20 + z = 26
z = 26 - 20
z = 6 ......oats weigh 6 lbs

3x + 2y + z = x + 5z
3x + 2(10) + 6 = x + 5(6)
3x + 26 = x + 30
3x - x = 30 - 26
2x = 4
x = 4/2
x = 2 <=== wheat weighs 2 lbs

The average of four numbers is 98. If three of the numbers are 86,87,and 91 what is the fourth number?
timurjin [86]
To find the average, you have to add all the numbers up and then divide by the amount of numbers you added together.

Equation: (86+87+91+x)/4=98
Solve for x:
86+87+91+x=98*4
264+x=392
x=392-264
x=128

The fourth number is 128
