Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

first, let's distribute.

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

3x+3-2=x+5

then, let's combine like terms.

3x+1=x+5

now, we subtract x on both sides.

2x+1=5

subtract 1 on both sides.

2x=4

divide by 2 on both sides.

x=2

SVEN [57.7K]

x=16

Explanation

the ratio is 2:3

it means for every 2 cars, there are 3 trucks

Now, it the total of trucks is 24,the proportion must be the same, so

Step 1

Let

x represents the number of cars for 24 trucks

$\frac{\text{2 cars}}{3\text{ trucks}}=\frac{x}{24\text{ trucks}}$

Step 2

solve for x

$\begin{gathered} \frac{\text{2 cars}}{3\text{ trucks}}=\frac{x}{24\text{ trucks}} \\ 2\cdot24=3\cdot x \\ x=\frac{2\cdot24}{3} \\ x=\frac{48}{3} \\ x=16 \end{gathered}$

Hence, the answer is 16
