Hello!
You solve this like an algebraic equation
You first distribute the 4 and 2
4x - 20 = 2x - 20 + 2x
Combine like terms
4x - 20 = 4x - 20
subtract 4x from both sides
-20 = 0x - 20
Add 20 to both sides
0 = 0
This means that there are infinite solutions to the equation.
Hope this helps!
hahaha since you don't know what i'm saying then when poop on people i will poop on you most lol
I think if I do this correctly, the answer is x<-1
Answer:
3) 8
4) 5.25 cups
Step-by-step explanation:
3) cross multiply:
36 × 10 = 360
45 × x = 45x
equate them both:
360 = 45x
divide both sides by 45
360 ÷ 45 = 8
x = 8
4) 8 people : 3 cups of flour
14 people : how many cups?
14 ÷ 8 = 1.75
to get from 8 people to 14 people we multiply by 1.75, so do the same thing to the 3 cups:
3 × 1.75 = 5.25 cups
