After the donation,
3m + m = 132
manual = 33
digital = 99
Before the donation, he had 82 more digital and 26 more manual cameras.
82 + 99 = 181 digital
26 + 33 = 59 manual
For a double check, before donation,
digital + manual = 240
181 + 59 = 240
So, to begin with, the number of digital cameras = 181.
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
3(3w + -5) = 12
Reorder the terms:
3(-5 + 3w) = 12
(-5 * 3 + 3w * 3) = 12
(-15 + 9w) = 12
Solving
-15 + 9w = 12
Solving for variable 'w'.
Move all terms containing w to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '15' to each side of the equation.
-15 + 15 + 9w = 12 + 15
Combine like terms: -15 + 15 = 0
0 + 9w = 12 + 15
9w = 12 + 15
Combine like terms: 12 + 15 = 27
9w = 27
Divide each side by '9'.
w = 3
Simplifying
w = 3

Answer:
8 and 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Two numbers are such that their difference, their sum, and their product are to
each other as 1:7:24. Their product must equal what number?
:
Two numbers a & b
Let x = the multiplier
:
a - b = 1x
a + b = 7x
a * b = 24x
:
Add the 1st two equations
a - b = x
a + b = 7x
2a = 8x
a = 4x
or
x = .25a
:
a * b = 24x
Replace 24x; a = 4x therefore:
a * b = 6a
b = 6
;
Using the 1st equation
a - b = 1x
Replace b with 6 and x with .25a
a - 6 = .25a
a - .25a = 6
.75a = 6
a =
a = 8
:
Find the multiplier
a - b = x
8 - 6 = 2
:
Check this
a - b = 2 (1*2)
a + b = 14; (7*2)
a * b = 48: (24*2)
:
The numbers are 8 and 6; their products = 48
