Answer:

x = -13

Step-by-step explanation:

Distribute:

8 - 6x + 10x - 15 = 20 - 5x

Combine like terms:

4x - 7 = 20 - 5x

Isolate Variable

-x = 13

-1(-x) = -1(13)

x = -13

Answer: x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to apply Distributive property on the left side of the equation:

2(4-3x)+5(2x-3)=20-5x\\\\8-6x+10x-15=20-5x

Now you must add the like terms on the left side of the equation:

-7+4x=20-5x

Add 5x to both sides:

-7+4x+5x=20-5x+5x\\\\-7+9x=20

Add 7 to boht sides of the equation:

-7+9x+7=20+7\\\\9x=27

And finally, divide both sides by 9:

\frac{9x}{9}=\frac{27}{9}\\\\x=3

Leah's house has media room with a large flat screen tv. The media room tv has a width of 8 feet and a height of 4.5 feet. The f
neonofarm [45]
The ratio of the media room tv's width to height is 8ft to 4.5ft or 8/4.5

since the ratio of the living room tv's width to height is the same, the ratio would be
x/27 = 8/4.5
with x being the living room tv's width. Solve for x
x = (8/4.5)(27)
   = 48
The width of the living room tv is 48 inches

Mervin has some cartons of milk. He sold 2/5 of milk in the morning. He sold 3/4 of the remainder in the afternoon. 24 more cart
sergejj [24]

2/5 were sold in the morning. This is equal to 40% of the total.  That leaves 60% leftover.

 

3/4 were sold in the afternoon. This is equal to 75% of the 60% leftover or 45% of the total (.6x.75).

 

The difference between the two sales is 24 cartons or 5% (45%-40%). If 5% is equal to 24 then you can cross multiply to see what is the equivalent number of cartons out of 100%.

 

5/100 = 24/x

5x = 24(100)

5x = 2400

x = 480

 

ANSWER: 480 cartons

The two circles shown above have radii of 8 in. and 2 in.
algol [13]

Answer:

1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

For the first circle 2 x 2in = 4 to find diameter

4 x 3.14 = 12.56

6in x 2 = 12

12 x 3.14 = 37.68

simplify

12.56/37.68

6.28/18.84

3.14/9.42

So the answer is 1/4 since 3.14 x 2 = 6.28

Also since the radius is 2 times longer
