Answer:

252 bags of maize

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are told that a farmer harvested maize

In the year 2012 = 144 bags of maize

In the year 2013(following year) the harvest decreased in the ratio 3:4

This means

3:4 = 2013: 2012.

Where number of bags harvested in 2013 = unknown = x

3/4 = x/ 144

Cross multiply 4x = 3 × 144

x = 3 × 144/ 4

× = 108

This means 108 bags of maize was harvested in 2013

The total number of bags harvested is = 108 + 144

= 252 bags of maize.

(×+2) +(4×-122)=180 need help with this problem
alina1380 [7]
So first you need to open the brackets, so it would be x+2+4x-122=180. Then we can add the 4x and the other x to make 5x, and then by doing 2-122 we get -120. This gives us the equation 5x-120=180. We then isolate the variable by moving the -120 to the other side of the equation and becoming a positive, so it would look like 5x=180+120. Then, we have 5x=300. 300 divides by 5 is 60 making X=60. Hope this helps!
