Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
x=20
Reorder the terms:
(2 + 5x) = 3(x + 14)
Remove parenthesis around (2 + 5x)
2 + 5x = 3(x + 14)
Reorder the terms:
2 + 5x = 3(14 + x)
2 + 5x = (14 * 3 + x * 3)
2 + 5x = (42 + 3x)
Solving
2 + 5x = 42 + 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.
2 + 5x + -3x = 42 + 3x + -3x
Combine like terms: 5x + -3x = 2x
2 + 2x = 42 + 3x + -3x
Combine like terms: 3x + -3x = 0
2 + 2x = 42 + 0
2 + 2x = 42
Add '-2' to each side of the equation.
2 + -2 + 2x = 42 + -2
Combine like terms: 2 + -2 = 0
0 + 2x = 42 + -2
2x = 42 + -2
Combine like terms: 42 + -2 = 40
2x = 40
Divide each side by '2'.
x = 20
Simplifying
x = 20

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: B= 12 15
Step-by-step explanation:
The given ratios are
A) 2 3= 2: 3 already in its simplest form
B) 12 15 =12:15 Changing to its simplest form, we divide both by 3 giving us 4:5
C) 18 27 =18: 27 Changing to its simplest form, we divide both numbers by 9 giving us =2:3
D)6 9=6:9 Changing to its simplest form, we divide both by 3 giving us
2:3
Therefore the ratio not equivalent to other three is 12:15
Could I have the choices?
