2x - 3 = 5

2x = 5 + 3

2x = 8

x =  8 \2( transposing   known value to one side  to  get  the value of  x)

x = 4(bringing  it to  lowest  term)

Mary plants roseas in 1/4 of her garden. She also plants some tulips in her garden. She has 1/12 of the garden left to plant mor
zysi [14]

Answer:the fraction of Mary's garden that has tulips is 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the full area if Mary's garden.

Mary plants roses in 1/4 of her garden. This means that the portion of the garden on which she planted roses would be 1/4 × x = x/4

She also plants some tulips in her garden. She has 1/12 of the garden left to plant more flowers. This means that the portion if the garden that she has left to plant more flowers would be 1/12 × x = x/12

The portion of the garden on which she planted tulips would be

x - (x/4 + x/12) = x - (3x + x)/12 = x - 4x/12

x - x/3 = (3x - x)/3 = 2x/3

Therefore, the fraction of Mary's garden that has tulips would be

(2x/3) /x = 2/3

Someone help me with this algebra question please 100% correct only
STALIN [3.7K]
Let x represent the width. Since the length is 3 more than 4 times the width, that would be equal to 3+4x. The perimeter is the sum of all sides, so that would be x+x+3+4x+3+4=86. Combine like terms, which would result in 10x+6=86. Subtract 6 from both sides giving you 10x=80. Divide by 10 giving you x=8. That means that the width is 8. The length is 3+4x. Substitute 8 for x giving you 3+4(8). Multiply, giving you 3+32, then add, which would give you 35.  35 is the length.
