Answer:

6 : 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Total books = 52

Fiction books = 24

Non-Fiction = Total - fiction

= 52 - 24

= 28

Therefore, the ratio from fiction to nonfiction would be

fiction : nonfiction

= 24 : 28

Simplify

= 12 : 14

= 6 : 7

What vaule of x makes th question true? 3x+2(x-5)=50 a. 8 b.9 c.11 d.12

Ainat [17]

Hey Tierra7l,

Lets solve your equation together step by step.

$3x+2\left(x-5\right)=50$

$\mathrm{Expand}\:2\left(x-5\right):\quad 2x-10$

$\mathrm{Distribute\:parentheses\:using}:\quad \:a\left(b+c\right)=ab+ac$

$a=2,\:b=x,\:c=-5$

$2\cdot \:x+2\left(-5\right)$

$\mathrm{Apply\:minus-plus\:rules}$

$\:\:+\left(-a\right)=-a$

$2x-2\cdot \:5$

$\mathrm{Multiply\:the\:numbers:}\:2\cdot \:5=10$

$2x-10$

$3x+2x-10=50$

$\mathrm{Add\:similar\:elements:}\:3x+2x=5x$

$5x-10=50$

$\mathrm{Add\:}10\mathrm{\:to\:both\:sides}$

$5x-10+10=50+10$

$\mathrm{Simplify}$

$5x=60$

$\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}5$

$\dfrac{5x}{5}=\dfrac{60}{5}$

$\mathrm{Simplify}$

$x=12$

Hope this helps,
