(x/6) = 8 ; Solve for "x"
Multiply each side of the equation by "6" ;
to isolate "x" on one side of the equation; & to solve for "x" ;
6 * (x/6) = 8 * 6 ;
to get:

Hey there! The answer is 7x + 4y < 40
Let's first rearrange our data in a more structured way.
x represents a box of wings which has a cost of $7.00. Therefore the total cost of the boxes is 7x.
y represents a tray of nachos which has a cost of $4.00. Therefore the total cost of the trays is 4y.
The sum of the costs of trays and boxes, which is (7x + 4y) must be smaller than $40.
Now we can set up the inequality.
~ Hope this helps you!
A population of deer had 200 individuals and 15% were lost in one year. We can calculate the number of deer that were lost with proportion:
200 deer ------------------------100%
x deer ------------------------ 15%
-----------------------------------------------
200 : x = 100 : 15
200 * 15 = 100 x
3,000 = 100 x
x = 3,000 : 100
x = 30
Answer: 30 deer were lost in one year.
