Hi there!
To solve this problem, we need to simplify.
2/3x = 12
To isolate x, we should multiply both sides of the equation by the reciprocal of 2/3 to make x equal to a value:
Reciprocal of 2/3 = 3/2
x = 12 * 3/2
x = 18
Hope this helps!

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The equations need to match the problem statements. If we let C and S represent the costs of Cherry and Sweet potato pies, respectively, then the revenue from each sale can be expressed as an equation.
1 cherry and 7 sweet potato for $114 ⇒ C +7S = 114
14 sweet potato and 11 cherry for $309 ⇒ 11C +14S = 309
Note that we have used C and S in the second equation in the same order as they appeared in the first equation, even though the problem statement has that order reversed. This facilitates solving the equations using elimination or Cramer's rule.
These equations match Option 4.

The cost of a cherry pie can be found by eliminating S from the equations. We can do that by subtracting twice the first equation from the second:
(11C +14S) -2(C +7S) = (309) -2(114)
9C = 81 . . . . . simplify
C = 9 . . . . . . . divide by 9
The cost of each cherry pie is $9.
Answer:
I believe its -800, but i'm not sure.
Since the ratio is part-Whole, first you need to find the whole. If you add all of the marble colors together (17+13+23) you get the total marbles (53) in the box. The ratio of red marbles to the total would be 17 to 53.
