Hi there!
x=8
<u><em>1.Subtract the answer with the 3 / subtract the terms:</em></u>

<u><em /></u>
<u><em>2.Divide the two terms:</em></u>
<u><em /></u>
<u><em /></u>
Therefore, x=8

If there are 4 trucks then the first truck weighs x
then x+2tons
then x+4tons
then x+6tons = 32tons
so 4x+12=32
-12 -12
/4 /4
x=5
so plug it back in
truck 1= 5tons or 10,000lbs
truck 2= 7tons or 14,000lbs
truck 3= 9tons or 18,000lbs
<span>truck 4= 11tons or 22,000lbs</span>
24 feet
Set up a ratio of object height to shadow length.
So x/32=6/8
8(4)=32 so 6(4) would be 24.
Given:
Ratio of tulips to roses = 2:1
Total number of flowers = 18
To find:
The number of tulips.
Solution:
Let the number of tulips and roses are 2x and x respectively.
According to the question,


Divide both sides by 3.


Now,
Number of tulips 

Therefore, the number of tulips is 12.
