Although the problem above may look really different or much harder than any equation we have solved before, guess what?! It’s not! We still use the same properties to solve these kinds of equations. On the left side of the equation you have a fraction with a numerator of (4b+8) and a denominator of (2). The variable is in the numerator of the fraction so we will need to get rid of the denominator first. The numerator is being DIVIDED by the denominator so how do we undo division? We multiply! Multiply both sides by the denominator, 2, and simplify.

(2)4b+82=10(2)

4b+8=

Now we have a simple two-step equation. Subtract 8 from both sides.

4b=

Lastly, divide both sides by 4 to isolate the variable.

b=

As always, we can check our work by plugging our answer back into our original equation.

Afriend of mine is giving a dinner party. his current wine supply includes 10 bottles of zinfandel, 8 of merlot, and 11 of cabernet (he only drinks red wine), all from different wineries. (a) if he wants to serve 3 bottles of zinfandel and serving order is important, how many ways are there to do this? ways (b) if 6 bottles of wine are to be randomly selected from the 29 for serving, how many ways are there to do this? ways (c) if 6 bottles are randomly selected, how many ways are there to obtain two bottles of each variety? ways (d) if 6 bottles are randomly selected, what is the probability that this results in two bottles of each variety being chosen? (round your answer to three decimal places.) (e) if 6 bottles are randomly selected, what is the probability that all of them are the same variety? (round your answer to three decimal places.)
