Literal equations, simply put, are equations containing two or more variables. Your goal is to solve for just one variable with respect to others. If you know how to solve regular equations, then I guarantee you that solving literal equations will be a breeze.
The "heart" of literal equation is to isolate or keep by itself a certain variable on one side of the equation (either left or right) and the rest on the opposite side.
Answer:
-9
Step-by-step explanation:
The question is just asking you to find for what y-value is x -3
Answer:
4.12 kg
Step-by-step explanation:
Regular cakes:
1 dozen normal sponge cakes: 264 g plain flour
Vegetarian cakes:
1 dozen cakes: 264 g plain flour
4 eggs are replaced by 4 * 30 g of flour = 120 g flour
total flour for 1 dozen vegetarian cakes = 264 g + 120 g = 384 g
Proportion for regular cakes:
12 cakes to 264 g flour = 100 cakes to x grams flour
12/264 = 100/x
12x = 26400
x = 2200
2200 g flour for 100 regular cakes
Proportion for vegetarian cakes:
12 cakes to 384 g flour = 60 cakes to y grams flour
12/384 = 60/y
12y = 384 * 60
12y = 23040
y = 1920
1920 g flour for 60 vegetarian cakes
Total flour needed:
2200 g + 1920 g = 4120 g
4120 g * 1 kg/(1000 g) = 4.12 kg
Answer: 4.12 kg
