X=lottie's aples

give 1/4 of them to fred
origianly had 4/4, but gave 1/4 away so now has (3/4)x
eats 5 of them
(3/4)x-5
now she has 7 more than fred (fred has (1/4)x

so

(3/4)x-5 is 7 more than (1/4)x
(3/4)x-5=7+(1/4)x
add 5 to both sides
(3/4)x=12+(1/4)x
minus (1/4)x from both sides
(2/4)x=12
(1/2)x=12
times 2/1 both sides
2/2x=24
x=24

she had 24 to begin with

Soire 4(x + 1) + 8 = 24. (I point)<br> оа<br> A 3.75<br> B -2<br> C 5<br> D 3
Olin [163]

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

4(x + 1) + 8 = 24

Subtract 8 from each side

4(x + 1) + 8-8 = 24-8

4(x + 1) = 16

Divide by 4

4(x+1)/4 = 16/4

x+1 = 4

Subtract 1

x+1-1 = 4-1

x=3

bonufazy [111]
\bf \stackrel{total}{27}\qquad 4:5\qquad \cfrac{4}{5}\implies \cfrac{4\cdot \frac{27}{4+5}}{5\cdot \frac{27}{4+5}}\implies \cfrac{4\cdot 3}{5\cdot 3}\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{packed~lunch}{12}}{\stackrel{did~not~pack~lunch}{15}}
