So to start this question, we must multiply out the bracket as follows:2 x (y+3) = 10(2 x y) + (2 x 3) = 102y + 6 = 10Now we take away 6 from both sides of the equation:2y + 6 = 10 (NOW TAKE AWAY 6)2y = 4...

a) y = x/2 - 1 b) y = -2x + 9

5 tins of soup have a total weight of 1750 grams.
--> from this, we can calculate the total weight of 1 tin of soup, with 1750÷5 = 350 grams
4 t...
