Is there supposed to be a picture??
But to answer ur question when ur referring to x your referring to 1 hope this helps
If we say A = ream of paper and B = cost of ink than we can set-up an expression to calculate when A is equal to a number what the number of B will be.
Maximim of 270$ so anything we buy must be equal to this.
Ream of paper cost 6$ each so 6A represents the number of reams bought since we said A is number of reams of paper.
Ink Cartridges are 18$ each so 18B would represent this based on B = to cost of ink.
Now setting up our equation
6A + 18B = 270
When A = 1
B = 14.67 Ink Cartridges
When A = 1 Ream ofpaper
Let the number be x.
x/3 + 12 = 46
Subtract 12 from both sides and you will get:
x/3 = 34
Multiply both sides by 3:
x = 102
Greatest Common Factor: 12-1/3 = -4/12, 7/4 = 21/12-4/12 + 21/12 = 17/12
Answer in simplest form: 17/12
