4x + 8 = \frac{2}{3}(9 + x)

12x + 24 = 2(9 + x)             <em>multiplied both sides by 3</em>

12x + 24 = 18 + 2x             <em>distributed 2 on the right side</em>

10x + 24 = 18                      <em>subtracted 2x from both sides</em>

         10x = -6                     <em>subtracted 24 from both sides</em>

         \frac{10x}{10} = \frac{-6}{10}           <em>divided both sides by 10</em>

           x = \frac{-3}{5}

Answer: \frac{-3}{5}

In a survey of 100 people, some of them jog for exercise, some of them ride a bike, some do both, and 15 do not jog or ride a bi
masya89 [10]

Answer:

Bike alone = 39

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Total number = n(T) = 100

Jog= n(J)

Bike = n(B)

Bike and jog = n(BnJ) = 21

Number who jog = 46

Jog alone = 46 - 21 = 25

Neither jog nor bike = 15

Let bike alone = x

Hence,

Jog alone + bike alone + jog and bike + none of the two = 100

25 + x + 21 + 15 = 100

x = 39
