Answer:
b = 3w; 54
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the student reads 3 books in one week, we know that one book is three times the amount of weeks, or b = 3w
We can plug in 18 for w to find how many books are read in 18 weeks
b = 3w
b = 3(18)
b = 54
So after 18 weeks she has read 54 books

Answer:
M = (S -C)/C
Step-by-step explanation:
Starting with ...
S = C + MC
we want to solve for M.
S - C = MC . . . . subtract the term not containing M
(S -C)/C = M . . . . divide by the coefficient of M
Solved for M, the formula is ...
M = (S -C)/C
1:4 because both numbers can be divided by 64.
To solve this problem, you will first want to convert 5 pounds into ounces. To do this, first determine how many ounces is in 1 pound.
There are 16 ounces in 1 pound, so to convert 5 pounds into ounces, you simply have to multiply 5 × 16. This will give you 80 ounces total.
Allie give 12 ounces away, so you must first subtract 12 ounces from your total (80 ounces). 80 - 12 gives us 68 ounces.
Allie then divides the trail mix up into 4 ounce portions. To figure out how many small bags she can make, you simply divide your new total (68 ounces) by 4.
68 ÷ 4 = 17
Allie made 17 small bags.
