This situation of the recipe can be represented as y=x+5.5 and it is expected that x is ≥ 0 and y is ≥ 5.5.
<h3>What is the equation for this situation?</h3>
It is known the total amount of flour (y) is equivalent to the total amount of whole wheat flour (5.5) added to the total white flour (x). Therefore, the equation is:
y = x + 5.5
The possible values are
x = It is expected x is equalthan 0 or greater to it since the minimum amount of white flour that can be added is 0.
y = It is expected y is equal than 5.5 or greater to it since even if no
white flour is added the minimum total is 5.5.

Answer:
y=-1/2x+17
Step-by-step explanation:
y=-1/2x+17
Answer:
2) x = 6 y = 7 3) x = -5 y= 2
Step-by-step explanation:
2) 10x - 8y = 4
2(-5x + 3y = -9)
-10x + 6y = -18
10x - 8y = 4 Add both equations together
-2y = -14
y = 7 Divide both sides by -2
10(x) - 8(7) = 4 Plug in 7 for the y to solve for x
10x - 56 = 4
+ 56 + 56 Add 56 to both sides
10x = 60
x = 6 Divide both sides by 10
3) Where the two lines intersect, that is the solution to x and y.
The lines intersect at (-5,2). x = -5 y = 2
