Sounds like rearranging to me:

P=2(a+b) -- expand brackets
P=2a+2b -- subtract 2a
P-2a=2b -- divide by 2

b=(P-2a)/2

P=2(a+b)\\
P=2a+2b\\
2b=P-2a\\
b=\frac{P-2a}{2}

Cranberry juice costs $6.30 per quart and apple juice costs $3.60 per quart. Terrence wants to know how many quarts q of cranber
Korvikt [17]

We know that:

Cost (Cranberry Juice): 6.3 per quart

Cost (Apple Juice): 3.6 per quart

Quantity (Apple Juice): 4 quarts

Quantity (Cranberry Juice): q quarts

Further we know that Terrence wants the cost of the juice to be 4.5 per quart

Hence Total Cost = Cost per quart × Total Number of quarts = (Cost per quart for Apple Juice × Total Number of Apple Juice Quarts) + (Cost per quart for Cranberry Juice × Total Number of Cranberry Juice Quarts)

⇒ Total Cost = 4.5 × (q+4) = 6.3 × q + 3.6 × 4

⇒ 4.5(q+4) = 6.3q + 14.4, which matches with option D

Hence, the correct option is D

Mean is the "meanest" because it requires the most work. Add up the values in your data set and divide by the number of terms in the data.

Let x represent attendees at Harry's Hoedown, then

Mean = \frac{Martha's (M) + Shirly's (S)  + Harry's (x) }{3}

41 = \frac{48 + 33 + x}{3}

123 = 48 + 33 + x

123 = 81 + x

42 = x

Answer: 42
