Answer:

STEP ONE: 2x

STEP TWO: 5=X (should be the final answer)

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi Lasagna!

So basically, this is extremely simple. In order to "solve" that equation, the x has to be on one side. The easiest way to do this would be to take the 2x to the other side. If you want the 2x to go to the other side, you need to subtract it (since it is already positive, therefore it <em>needs </em>to cancel out). Once you do that, you must always do the same thing to the other side: subtract 2x from 3x. That should get you one x there, which you can just write as x if it's just one. Then you're all set! :D

ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

8% is also 8/100. This would be true for all percents 0 to 100%. If it were 42% it can be written as 42/100.

So, 8% is 8/100. If you want to find 8/100 of 50 multiply them.

8/100 * 50/1 = (8*50) /100

400/100 = 4

What is the ratio a:b if 8a=3b?

Digiron [165]

The ratio a:b is 3:8

Step-by-step explanation:

In simple words, the ratio a:b means the fraction a/b.

So we will have to solve the given equation for a/b

Given

$8a=3b$

Dividing both sides by 8

$\frac{8a}{8}=\frac{3b}{8}\\a=\frac{3b}{8}$

Dividing both sides by b

$\frac{a}{b}=\frac{3b}{8*b}\\\frac{a}{b} =\frac{3}{8}$

The ratio a:b is 3:8
