Hello Jsurginer2000otz2ik, <span>it would be reasonable to say that the mixture could contain 6 ounces of blue jelly beans and 4 ounces of red jelly beans because they want a price of $ 3.08 per bag, so $ 0.27*6=1.62 and $ 0.44 * 4 ounces = 1.76. add them and it comes out to  $ 3.38 which is equivalent to 3.08 but if its not the answer your looking for just say so i can correct myself.</span>

5x-(x+1)=5-2x<br>aolve each equation ​
KatRina [158]

Answer:

x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

When there is a "-" (minus) sign in front of parenthesis, we distribute the sign inside. Let's do this with "-(x+1)". So we will have:

5x-(x+1)=5-2x\\5x-x-1=5-2x

Now, we follow rules of algebra. We take variables to one side and numbers to another side (remember to change signs with changing sides). Shown below:

5x-x-1=5-2x\\5x-x+2x=5+1

Now, we add like terms in left side. Such as:

ax + bx = (a+b)x

Thus, we have:

5x-x+2x=5+1\\6x=5+1

Now, we add right side and divide and get a value for x:

6x=5+1\\6x=6\\x=\frac{6}{6}\\x=1

The value of x is 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of people that attended the movie.

And y the number of adults that attended the movie

Given;

Percent of adults that attended the movie = 40%

Number of adults that attended the movie y = 20

So,

40% of those that attended the movie area adults.

y = 40% of x

y = 40/100 × x

y = 0.4x

(Ratio of y to x is 4:10 or 0.4)

Making x the subject of formula;

x = y/0.4

Substituting the value of y given;

x = 20/0.4

x = 50

Therefore, 50 people attended the movie.
