To solve this problem, you should first turn it into an equation. Start with \"amy%2Bbea%2Bcea=10w\". Then plug in what you know. You know that \"amy=2w\" and \"bea=cea\". So plugging this into the original equation you get \"2w+%2Bcea%2Bcea=10w\" , Or \"2w+%2B2cea=10w\". Then to get w on one side, subtract 2w from both sides and get \"2cea=8w\". Divide each side by 2 two isolate cea and get cea in terms of w. \"cea=4w\"!\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "If w+4, then simply plug in 4 for w. \"cea=4w=4%284%29\". 4x4=16. So cea is 16.
