If the ratio is 5:7 then the each part has a value of:
60/(5+7)=5 so from a total of 60
5:7 becomes 5*5:7*5 which is:
25:35
It would be 9 because 2x9=18. Then 18+-2=16.
hey there
the answer is
14x + 6 = 5x + -3
6 + 14x = 5x + -5
6 + 14x = -3 + 5x
6 + 14x + -5x = -3 + 5x + -5x
Combine like terms: 14x + -5x = 9x
6 + 9x = -3 + 5x + -5x
Combine like terms: 5x + -5x = 0
6 + 9x = -3 + 0
6 + 9x = -3
6 + -6 + 9x = -3 + -6
Combine like terms: 6 + -6 = 0
0 + 9x = -3 + -6
9x = -3 + -6
Combine like terms: -3 + -6 = -9
9x = -9
Divide each side by '9'.
x = -1
Simplifying
x = -1
thank you

-2 1/2 / 6 would be -5/12, just turn - 2 1/2 into a decimal and divide by 6 :)
Answer:
x=-9/4
Step-by-step explanation:
4x+7=-2
1) Subtract 7 from both sides:
4x=-9
2) Divide both sides by 4:
x=-9/4
