The equation you had:
6x + 5y = 45
Solve for Y:
5y = (-6x) + 45 divide by 5
y = (-6/5)x + 9
y = -1 1/5x +9
Steps to solve this equation:
Have x represent the jam
Have y represent the bread mix.
6x + 5y = 45
That's the most it can be simplified, and the problem doesn't specify what it wants, so I guess your finished.
