The amount of sugar
in the starting solution contributes to a 36% concentration, so we have

units of sugar in the solution.
Into this solution, Sharon wants to pour
liters of water to obtain a smaller concentration of sugar in the overall solution:

So Sharon needs to add
liters of water to the solution to get the desired concentration.
The answer is 5/9 because there are a total of 5 other colors besides blue
Let
c--------> the total cost
x------> the number of tickets
z------> the cost of one ticket without service fee
we know that

solve for z
combine like terms



The linear function is equal to

therefore
<u>the answer is</u>

Answer:
a=4
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Question: 4-8a=4(5-3a)</u>
<u />
1) Distribute 4 to 5 and -3a:
4-8a=20-12a
2) Add 12a to both sides:
4+4a=20
3) Subtract 4 from both sides:
4a=16
4) Divide both sides by 4:
a=4
