Ok so we have the first portion. We need to do cross multiplication first. So that would be 20(2x - 9) and 10(9)
So
20(2x - 9)=90
40x - 180=90
Then add 180 to itself then to 90
40x=270
X=6.75
Now let’s set the next one up knowing what we know from the previous one.
18(3x + 4)= 12(15)
54x + 72=180
Subtract 72 from it’s self and 180
54x=108
X=2
Answer:
7 in both boxes
Step-by-step explanation:
In the picture, it shows
4 (x - 3) = 20
and then it shows
4 (x) - 4 (3) = 20
so practically you separate the x and 3 and put them in parentheses and then put a 4 next to both of them.
It should be the same as your question.
7 x (8 - 3)
and then separate 8 and 3 and put a 7 next to both of them.
( 7 x 8) - ( 7 x 3)
Hope it helps and have a great day! =D

To find how long it would take, you must divide the total amount of gallons of water in the pond by the amount of gallons drained per hour. This would translate to:
4290 ÷ 78
Which would give you the total amount of hours needed to completely drain the pool, aka the answer:
4290 ÷ 78 = 55
There are 52 cards in a deck of cards so that makes 52 your denominator. There are 4 aces in a deck of cards, so 52 - 4 = 48 making 48 your numerator. so the probability the card won't be an ace is 48 out of 52.
48/52 chance that the card will not be an ace.
Hope this helps you. :-)
You would set up a proportion for people that choose beach/ total
So (14+17+19)/(50+50+50) which simplifies to 50/150 or 1/3
From here we can set 1/3 = x/1200 and solve for x
To do this we would multiply each side by 1200 to isolate x
(1/3)×1200= 400
So x=400
Therefore, 400 people can be expected to pick the beach
