<h3>The value of x is equal to 8.</h3>

3(x + 1) = 19 + x

Distributive property.

3x + 3 = 19 + x

Subtract x from both sides.

2x + 3 = 19

Subtract 3 from both sides.

2x = 16

Divide both sides by 2.

x = 8

Tina ate 21 starbursts. If she ate 35% of the package of Starbursts, how many Starbursts are in the package?

mojhsa [17]

Answer:

60 starbursts

Step-by-step explanation:

We can set up an equation to find the answer. 21/x=0.35/1 because we're trying to find how many starbursts make up 100% of the package. So then to solve, we take 21x1 and then divide that by 0.35. From this we find that x=60.
