We prove an uniqueness and existence theorem for the entropy weak solution of non-linear hyperbolic conservation laws of the form \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$$ \frac{\partial }{{\partial t}}u + \frac{\partial }{{\partial x}}f\left(u \right) = 0 $$\end{document}, with initial data and boundary condition. The scalar function u = u(x, t), x 〉 0, t 〉 0, is the unknown; the function f = f(u) is assumed to be strictly convex. We also study the weighted Burgers' equation: α ∊ ∝ \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$$ \frac{\partial }{{\partial t}}\left({x^\alpha u} \right) + \frac{\partial }{{\partial x}}\left({x^\alpha \frac{{u^2 }}{2}} \right) = 0 $$\end{document}.We give an explicit formula, which generalizes a result of Lax. In particular, a free boundary problem for the flux f(u(.,.)) at the boundary is solved by introducing a variational inequality. The uniqueness result is obtained by extending a semigroup property due to Keyfitz.
