<span>Equation:
silver + silver = silver
0.45x + 0.60(40-x) = 0.48*40
----------------
45x + 60*40 - 60x = 48*40
--------
-15x = -12*40
x = (4/5)40
x = 32 lbs (amt of 45% slloy needed)
40-x = 8 lbs (amt of 60% alloy needed)</span>
Answer:
1.214 or or
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this equation, first you need to the variable term isolated. You do this by adding 10 to each side. Your equation will now look like
17c = 14
Next, you will divide both sides by the 17.
Your equation now is solved, and above, I put ther three different forms for your answer: decimal, mixed number, and improper fraction.

Answer:
-3x + 4y = 40.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's convert the equation to standard form:
y - 4 = 3/4(x + 8)
y - 4 = 3/4 x + 6
y = 3/4x + 10
Multiply through be 4:
4y = 3x + 40
-3x + 4y = 40 (answer).
Answer: x = -6
Step 1: 2x = 4x+8+4
Step 2: 2x-4x = 12
Step 3: -2x = 12
Step 3: x = -6
