Question

This equation shows how the total number of appetizer recipes Emily knows depends on the number of weeks she attends culinary school. a = w + 17 The variable w represents the number of weeks she has attended culinary school, and the variable a represents the total number of appetizer recipes she knows. After how many weeks of culinary school will Emily know a total of 19 appetizer recipes?

Answer 1

W=2

Explanation:

First you have to fill A in as 19 because thats how many culinary recipes that she will need to know

Second you then have to get the variable W by itself so you would subtract 17 from the side that W is on

Once you subtract 17 from one side you have to subtract from the other

So therefore W would =2
