The steps and final answer is shown in the attached image. I wrote it there so I could write out complex algebraic formulas. Let me know if you have any questions about any of the steps. Thank you.
Answer:
Part A: x=3
Part B: 6oz
3x=18
Step-by-step explanation:
Part A-
So, he needs 3 oz for each sandwich.
This gives us 3 for the equation.
The question says that we need an equation for this.
If we need an equation, we could write something like
x=3
There's really not anything else that we could write here.
Part B-
We now have something that we need to write.
He has 18 oz for sandwiches.
Each sandwich needs 3 oz.
So, we can write something like 3x=18
Then we could solve the equation by dividing both sides by 3.
This will leave us with x=6
Hope this works!
