If 3 out of 5 are oranges, this means the ratio is 3 oranges for every 5 total.
If there are 12 oranges, this is 4 groups of 3 oranges. You will need 4 groups of 5 total to make it equivalent.
4 x 5 = 20 total fruit.
<u>3</u> x <u>4 </u>= <u>12</u>
5 x 4 20
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
= x - 5 ( x ≥ 3 )
(
)² = ( x - 5 )²
x - 3 = x² - 10x + 25
x² - 11x + 28 = 0
(x - 4)(x - 7) = 0
= 7
= 4
Check the answer:
1). x = 7
= 7 - 2
√4 = 2
2 = 2
2). x = 4
= 4 - 5
1 = - 1 (False statement) ⇒ x = 4 is an extraneous solution.
