Please help me with this literal equation!
ollegr [7]

Answer:

x = \frac{n-20}{3a}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

\frac{3ax-n}{5} = - 4

Multiply both sides by 5

3ax - n = - 20 ( add n to both sides )

3ax = - 20 + n = n - 20

Isolate x by dividing both sides by 3a

x = \frac{n-20}{3a}

For this case, the first thing we must do is define variables:
 x = number of quarters

 x + y = 28
 0.25x + 0.10y = 4.05
 Solving the system of equations we have:
 x = 8.33
 y = 19.66
 Rounding:
 x = 8
 y = 20
