The solution of the equation which is as described in the task content when expressed in its simplest form is; -5/13.

<h3>What is the solution of the equation as described in the task content?</h3>

It follows from the task content that the solution to the equation is to be determined and expressed in its simplest form.

Given;

-1/2 -1/2(4/5x+1) = -2 -3x

By distributing the coefficients: we have;

-1/2 - 2/5x - 1/2 = -2 -3x

Hence, by collecting like terms; we have;

-1/2 - 1/2 + 2 = -3x + (2/5)x

1 = -13x/5

Therefore; by cross-multiplication; we have;

5 = -13x

Divide both sides by; -13.

x = -5/13.

Ultimately, the solution of the equation which is as described in the task content when expressed in its simplest form is; -5/13.

A 2L punch recipe calls for orange and ginger ale in the ratio of 2:5
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

a) 4/7 L = 0.57 L

b) 25/7 L = 3.57 L

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of orange juice to ginger ale is 2:5.

Add 2 + 5 = 7.

The ratio of orange juice to ginger ale to total drink is 2:5:7.

a) The fraction of orange juice is 2/7 of the total drink.

To make 2 L, you will need 2/7 of 2 L to be orange juice.

2/7 * 2 L = 4/7 L = 0.57 L

b) The fraction of ginger ale is 5/7 of the total drink.

5/7 * 5 L = 25/7 L = 3.57 L
