X + (x + 2) + ( x + 4) + (x + 6)
----------------------------------- = 15
4
4x + 12
--------- = 15
4
Multiply by 4 on both sides
4x + 12 = 60
subtract 12 from both sides
4x = 48
divide by 4 on each side
x = 12
x + 2 = 14
x + 4 = 16
x + 6 = 18

Answer:
You should make 250 quarts of Creamy Vanilla and 200 of Continental Mocha to use up all the eggs and cream.
Step-by-step explanation:
This problem can be solved by a first order equation
I am going to call x the number of quarts of Creamy Vanilla and y the number of quarts of Continental Mocha.
The problem states that each quart of Creamy Vanilla uses 2 eggs and each quart of Continental Mocha uses 1 egg. There are 700 eggs in stock, so:
2x + y = 700.
The problem also states that each quart of Creamy Vanilla uses 3 cups of cream and that each quart of Continental Mocha uses 3 cups of cream. There are 1350 cups of cream in stock, so:
3x + 3y = 1350
Now we have to solve the following system of equations
1) 2x + y = 700
2) 3x + 3y = 1350
I am going to write y as function of x in 1) and replace it in 2)
y = 700 - 2x
3x + 3(700 - 2x) = 1350
3x + 2100 - 6x = 1350
-3x = -750 *(-1)
3x = 750
x = 250
You should make 250 quarts of Creamy Vanilla
Now, replace it in 1)
y = 700 - 2x
y = 700 - 2(250)
y = 700 - 500
y = 200.
You should make 200 quarts of Continental Mocha
Answer:
x = 28/3
Step-by-step explanation:
3x - 1 = 27
Add 1 to each side
3x - 1+1 = 27+1
3x = 28
Divide by 3
3x/3 = 28/3
x = 28/3
