2= $5.00
3= $7.50
15= x

1 puzzle= $2.50
so, 15 puzzles= $37.50

2x=5.00; 2/2x= 5.00/2; x= 2.50
3x= 7.50; 3/3x= 7.50/3; x= 2.50
15*x= 15x; 15*2.50= 37.50

You can solve this problem several ways if 2 puzzles cost $5.00 then 1 puzzle costs $2.50 the variable would be the number of puzzles, the cost of each puzzle stays the same cost= number of puzzles times the price 2,50 (15)= x $37,50 =x also if 3 puzzles cost 7.50 then 15 is 5 times that cost 5 (7,50)= $ 37.50 also ratio and proportion 1 puzzle/$2.50= 15 puzzles/ x $ cross multiply x= $37,50 hope this helps

Solve -2x+3=-3x+2 and is it no solution <br>One solution or infinitely many solutions. ​
Alex73 [517]

Answer is =-1

implifying

-2x + 3 = -3x + 2

Reorder the terms:

3 + -2x = -3x + 2

Reorder the terms:

3 + -2x = 2 + -3x

Solving

3 + -2x = 2 + -3x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '3x' to each side of the equation.

3 + -2x + 3x = 2 + -3x + 3x

Combine like terms: -2x + 3x = 1x

3 + 1x = 2 + -3x + 3x

Combine like terms: -3x + 3x = 0

3 + 1x = 2 + 0

3 + 1x = 2

Add '-3' to each side of the equation.

3 + -3 + 1x = 2 + -3

Combine like terms: 3 + -3 = 0

0 + 1x = 2 + -3

1x = 2 + -3

Combine like terms: 2 + -3 = -1

1x = -1

Divide each side by '1'.

x = -1

Simplifying

x = -1
