x = 30
The distributive property says that we need to multiply what's in the brackets by 1/2 (so 1/2*x and 1/2*6) to get the equation 1/2x + 3 = 18.
Then we need to subtract our constant, 3, from boths sides to get 1/2x = 15.
Multiply both sides by two to isolate x and you get x = 30.
Hope this helps! :)
Answer:
Mom would required 1 lbs of Sugar and 4 lbs of water.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Amount of Sugar syrup Mom wants to make = 5 lbs
Percentile amount of syrup she needs to make = 20%
Solution:
Let amount of sugar to make 20% syrup be 'x'.
So by definition of proportion we get;

Now Multiplying both side by 5 we get;

So we can say that;
Amount of water = 
Hence Mom would required 1 lbs of Sugar and 4 lbs of water.
