Answer:
Final answer is approx 6.644 years.
Step-by-step explanation:
4(2x-4) = 16
4*2x - 4*4 = 16
8x - 16 = 16
8x = 16 + 16
8x = 32 / : 8
x = 4
1/4 ounce of yeast ... 2 1/4 teaspoons of yeast
x ounce of yeast = ? ... 2 teaspoons of yeast
If you would like to know how many ounces of yeast need to be in the recipe, you can calculate this using the following steps:
1/4 * 2 = x * 2 1/4
1/2 = x * 9/4 /*4/9
x = 1/2 * 4/9
x = 2/9
Result: 2/9 ounce of yeast needs to be in this recipe.
Answer: x = 2a over b + c
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Multiply both sides by two. This cancels out 2 and turns a into 2a. It should look like 2a = bx + cx
2) Since both b and c have x’s, we turn it into (b + c)x
3. Then divide both sides by b+c to get 2a over b + c = x
