The answer is: [C]: " 3 " .
____________________________________
Explanation:
__________________________________
4x - 1 = 2x + 5 ; Solve for "x" ;
__________________________________
Subtract "2x" from each side of the equation; and add "1" to each side of the equation:
___________________________________________________
4x - 1 - 2x + 1 = 2x + 5 - 2x + 1 ;
___________________________________________________
2x = 6 ;
_________________________________
Divide EACH side of the equation by "2" ; to isolate "x" on ONE side of the equation; and to solve for "x" ;
_________________________________
2x / 2 = 6 / 2 ;
_________________________________
x = 3 .

The answer is: [C]: " 3 " .

is there photos for this question? sorry im a lil confused on "what the following" are
This means 5 meters/20 steps = x/1,000 steps. 20 times 50 is 1,000, so 5 times 50 is 250 meters. 5/20 can be also reduced to 1/4 = x/1000. Use cross products rule to get 4x = 1,000. Divided both sides by 4 to get x = 250 meters.
Let roses be R and carnations be C
"in a ratio of 2 to 7" means that the ratio of R to C is 2 to 7, meaning you'll have to cross multiply to translate it algebraically
since C = 343 we plug 343 in 
:
ergo, she needs 98 roses
to make sure of the answer:
"ratio of 2 to 7" is technically a fraction => 
and since the ratio of the roses to the carnations is the same as we plug the values R = 98 and C=343:
check with calculator too, hope i helped <33
