Answer:

a=19

Step-by-step explanation:

8=1/3(a+5)            by dividing both sides by 1/3

24 = a+5              get 5 to other side with oposite sign

24-5 = a

a = 19

Answer:

a = 19

Step-by-step explanation:

8 = \frac{1}{3} ( a + 5) ← multiply both sides by 3 to clear the fraction

24 = a + 5 ( subtract 5 from both sides )

19 = a

Who's is the solution set of the compound inequality 3.5x-10&gt;-3 and 8x-9&lt;39
velikii [3]
3.5x-10>-3  add 10 to both sides

3.5x>7  divide both sides by 3.5

x>2

... now for the other inequality:

8x-9<39  add 9 to both sides

8x<48  divide both sides by 3

x<6

So we have x>2 and x<6, so the compound inequality is:

2<x<6  and this means that the solution set is:

x=(2, 6)

Helena needs 3.5 cups of flour per loaf of bread and 2.5 cups of flour per batch of muffins. She also needs 0.75 cup of sugar pe
vesna_86 [32]
Let
 x = loaves of bread
 y = batches of muffins
 You must make a system of two equations with two unknowns that describe the problem
 3.5x + 2.5y = 17 --- (1)
 0.75x + 0.75y = 4.5 --- (2)
 Resolving we have
 x = 6-y (from (2))
 replacing in (1)
 3.5 (6-y) + 2.5y = 17
 21 - 3.5y + 2.5y = 17
 y = 21-17 = 4
 Then substituting in (2)
 x = 6-y = 6-4 = 2
 Answer
 Helena could bake:
 2 loaves of bread
 4 batches of muffins
