Answer:
y = 
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Ry - wy = t ← factor out y from each term on the left side
y(R - w) = t ( divide both sides by (R - w ) )
y = 
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
We have the following variables:
y: hours of sleep
x: age
Each day, a young person should sleep 9 hours
This means that y is 9 added to something
plus 1 4 hour for each year that the person is under 18 years of age.
For each year the person is under 18 years of age, she should sleep 1/4 = 0.25h on top of the 9 hours.
So the equation relating hours of sleep y and age x is:

The ones with ✓ signs are irrational the rest are rational. note this is not generally true but it is for this particular set
(1/15) / (1/3) = 1/x
cross multiply
1/15x = 1/3
x = 1/3 * 15
x = 15/3
x = 5 hrs
