<h2>Solving Equations</h2>
To solve linear equations, we must perform inverse operations on both sides of the equal sign to <em>cancel values out</em>.
- If something is being added to x, subtract it from both sides.
- If something is being subtracted from x, add it on both sides.
- Same with multiplication and division. If x is being divided, multiply. If x is being multiplied, divide.
We perform inverse operations to<em> combine like terms</em>. This means to get x to one side and everything else on the other.
<h2>Solving the Questions</h2><h3>Question 1</h3>
Because 7 is being added to x, subtract it from both sides:
Because x is being multiplied by 5, divide both sides by 5:
Therefore. 
.
<h3>Question 2</h3>
Here, we can group all the x values on the left side of the equation. Subtract 5x from both sides:
To isolate x, subtract 4 from both sides:
Divide both sides by 2:
Therefore, 
.

Answer:
The mixtures are not proportional.
3 fluid ounces of vinegar has to be added in the second mixture to make it proportional to the first mixture.
its =3
Step-by-step explanation:
The one mixture contains 6 fluid ounces and 10 fluid ounces of water and vinegar respectively.
Therefore, the ratio of water to vinegar in the first mixture is 6 : 10 = 3 : 5
Now, a second mixture contains 9 fluid ounces of water and 12 fluid ounces of vinegar.
Hence, the ratio of water to vinegar in the second mixture is 9 : 12 = 3 : 4
Therefore, the mixtures are not proportional.
Therefore, we have to add x fluid ounces of vinegar to the second mixture to make it in the ratio of 3 : 5.
So,
⇒ 12 + x = 15
⇒ x = 3 fluid ounces.
Therefore, 3 fluid ounces of vinegar has to be added in the second mixture to make it proportional to the first mixture. (Answer
Answer:
A. -5x = -23
Step-by-step explanation:
First you have to simplify the equation - 4(x - 5) + 8x = 9x - 3
-4x + 20 + 8x = 9x -3
9x - 4x = 20 + 3
5x = 23
=> equivalent to answer A.
