\n" ); document.write( " How much yellow paint is needed to make 70 quarts of green paint?
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Let x = the multiplier
\n" ); document.write( "3x + 7x = 70
\n" ); document.write( "10x = 70
\n" ); document.write( "x = 7 is the multiplier
\n" ); document.write( "therefore
\n" ); document.write( "7*7 = 49 qts of yellow paint
\n" ); document.write( "and
\n" ); document.write( "7*3 - 21 qts of blue paint
