Let's solve your equation step-by-step.
2/3(3x+1)=5
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
2/3(3x+1)=5
Simplify: (Show steps)
2x+2/3=5
Step 2: Subtract 2/3 from both sides.
2x+2/3−2/3=5−2/3
2x=13/3
Step 3: Divide both sides by 2.
2x/2=13/3/2
x=13/6
Answer:
x=13/6

Distribute the 2/3 to (3X+1) and then solve for X.

Two years ago, Sally had 5,000 dogs in her dog shelter. Now she has 24,575 dogs. The rate of change is 391.5 % increase

Solution:

Given that Two years ago, Sally had 5,000 dogs in her dog shelter

Now she has 24,575 dogs

To find: rate of change

A rate of change is a rate that describes how one quantity changes in relation to another quantity

<h3>Steps to follow:</h3>

First: work out the difference (increase) between the two numbers you are comparing.

Increase = New Number - Original Number.

Then: divide the increase by the original number and multiply the answer by 100.

% change = Increase ÷ Original Number x 100

$\text {rate of change }=\frac{\text { new value }-\text {original value}}{\text {original value}} \times 100$

$\begin{array}{l}{\text { rate of change }=\frac{24,575-5000}{5000} \times 100} \\\\ {\text { rate of change }=\frac{19575}{5000} \times 100=391.5}\end{array}$
