Answer:
y = ac / (a - b - c)
Step-by-step explanation:
y(a - b) = c(y + a)
Distribute
ay - by = cy + ac
Subtract cy from both sides
ay - by - cy = ac
Factor out y
y(a - b - c) = ac
Divide both sides by (a - b - c)
y = ac / (a - b - c)
Answer:
$15
Step-by-step explanation:
use a calculator and type 25%x12 and you will get 3
so 3 is 25% of 12
add 12 and 3 together to get your answer. $15
B=blue
g=green
r=red
2 times as many blue as green
b=2g
3 times as many red as blue
r=3b
subsitute 2g for b
r=3(2g)=6g
r=6g
r+g+b=765
so we subsitute
r=6g
g=g
b=2g
6g+g+2g=765
add like terms
9g=765
divide both sides by 9
g=85
subsitute
b=2b
b=2(85)
b=170
170 blue
