5x+10(300-x)=2350
\n" ); document.write( "5x+3000-10x=2350
\n" ); document.write( "-5x=2350-3000
\n" ); document.write( "-5x=-650
\n" ); document.write( "x=-650/-5
\n" ); document.write( "x=130 THE NUMBER OF5 gram bolts in the jar.
\n" ); document.write( "300-130=170 THE NUMBER OF 10 gram bolts in the jar.
\n" ); document.write( "proof
\n" ); document.write( "5*130+10*170=2350
\n" ); document.write( "650+1700=2350
\n" ); document.write( "2350=2350
