The equation shows how the total amount of aluminum cans Anya’s office has recycled depended on the number of weeks since they started the new recycling plan, a = 9w.
The variable, w, represents the number of weeks the office has been on the new recycling plan, and the variable, a, represents the total pounds of recycled aluminum. After 4 weeks, how many pounds of aluminum will Anya’s office have recycled?
+906 So, a=9w, and you wanna know how many pounds of aluminum Anya will recycle after 4 weeks with the plan
the 9w would mean 9 pounds of aluminum collected(9) per week(w)
and the a is the total amount of pounds
its imply to figure this out
a=9(4) (multiply 9 pounds times (* or X) 4 weeks, which will equal 36)
a=36
after 4 weeks, Anya's office would've recycled in all 36 pounds of aluminum
see? That wasn't so hard after all! :)
