Answer:
10 oranges
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplify by combing like terms to get 2x+5
The answers would be:
the coefficient is 2
the constant is 5
There are two terms.
The best way to find it is to reduce each ratio you work with to its
lowest terms,and see which ones are equal. To reduce a ratio to its
lowest terms, divide each number by their greatest common factor.
First, the one that you're trying to match: <u>49:35</u> .
The greatest common factor of 49 and 35 is 7 .
Divide each number by 7 . . . <em>7:5</em> . . . <u>that's</u> what you have to match.
<u>7:4</u>
Their greatest common factor is ' 1 '.
No help at all, and this one is not it.
<u>14:25</u>
Again, their greatest common factor is '1 '.
No help at all, and this one is not it.
<u>21:15</u>
Their greatest common factor is ' 3 '.
Divide both numbers by 3 . . . <em>7:5 </em>.
That's it !
(m + 12) / 9m = 5 / 9
cross multiply
(5)(9m) = 9(m + 12)
45m = 9m + 108
45m - 9m = 108
36m = 108
m = 108/36
m = 3 <==
