<em>*To solve for a specified variable, you need to isolate that variable onto one side.</em>
<h3>11.</h3>
Firstly, subtract 5r on both sides: 
Lastly, divide both sides by 2 and <u>your answer will be
</u>
<h3>12.</h3>
First, subtract z on both sides of the equation: 
Next, divide both sides by y and <u>your answer will be
</u>
<h3>13.</h3>
Firstly, multiply both sides by b: 
Next, divide both sides by c and <u>your answer will be
</u>
Question 2:
The answer is 21
The two angles are vertically opposite, which makes them equal and also means we can make an equation:
4x - 4 = 3x + 17
- 3x
x - 4 = 14
+ 4
x = 21
Question 3:
The answer is 23
Again, the angles are vertically opposite, so we can make them equal each other:
5x - 53 = 3x - 7
- 3x
2x - 53 = -7
+ 53
2x = 46
÷ 2
x = 23
I hope this helps!
Possible procedures:
1). peanut, peanut
2). peanut, cashew
3). peanut, pecan
4). cashew, peanut
5). cashew, cashew
6). cashew, pecan
7). pecan, peanut
8). pecan, cashew
9). pecan, pecan.
Nine (9) possible procedures.
But ...
(2) and (4) produce the same final result.
(3) and (7) produce the same final result.
(6) and (8) produce the same final result.
So there are only <em><u>six (6)</u></em> possible different outcomes.
