A candle maker plans to make 30 orange candles. She mixes wax to create a specific shade of orange. The ratio of each color in her mixture is shown below: 2 parts red wax 5 parts yellow wax 3 parts white wax. The candle maker needs 1 quart of orange wax for every 6 candles . How much yellow wax will the candle maker need to make all 30 candles ?

37/3

step-by-step explanation:

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

7x+8(x+

4

)=3(6x−9)−8

7x+(8)(x)+(8)(

4

)=(3)(6x)+(3)(−9)+−8(distribute)

7x+8x+2=18x+−27+−8

(7x+8x)+(2)=(18x)+(−27+−8)(combine like terms)

15x+2=18x+−35

15x+2=18x−35

tep 2: subtract 18x from both sides.

15x+2−18x=18x−35−18x

−3x+2=−35

step 3: subtract 2 from both sides.

−3x+2−2=−35−2

−3x=−37

step 4: divide both sides by -3.

no association

step-by-step explanation:

if you have eyes and you can use them efficiently you can see that it just looks like random dots like do a line of best fit and like they're so spread out it's such a weak association you might as well consider it nonexistent

cross multiplying, we get :

⇒ (3) × (5) = (9) × (x)

⇒ 15 = 9x

1/4 is the answer if i recall correctly.
