Answer: x=-24

Step-by-step explanation:

8-1/3x=16

First you would subtract the 8 from both sides like so:

8-1/3x=16

-8. -8

Giving you:

-1/3x=8

Then you would divide by -1/3:

-1/3x=8

÷-1/3. ÷-1/3

But you can divide by a fraction so you actually multiply by the opposite reciprocal:

X=8(-3)

Giving you:

X=-24

Granola costs $6.50 per pound. Assorted nuts cost $9 per pound. How many pounds of granola and nuts are needed to make 9 pounds
bezimeni [28]

Answer:

  • 3.6 pounds of granola and 5.4 pounds of nuts

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the required granola be x pounds, then amount of nuts is 9 - x.

<u>The price of the mixture is as below equation:</u>

  • 6.5x + 9(9 - x) = 8*9
  • 6.5x + 81 - 9x = 72
  • 81 - 2.5x = 72
  • 2.5x = 81 - 72
  • 2.5x = 9
  • x = 9/2.5
  • x = 3.6

<u>Find the amount of nuts:</u>

  • 9 - 3.6 = 5.4

DENIUS [597]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Edith is x years old.

Her sister,Madison is six years older than her. This means that the age of Madison is x + 6

Their mother is twice as old as Madison. This means that the age of their mother is expressed as

2(x + 6)

= 2x + 12

Their aunt, Elizabeth is x years older than their mother. This means that the expression that represents Elizabeth's age in years is

2x + 12 + x

= 3x + 12
