Answer:
-3x-8=16
-3x = 16+8
-3x = 24
x = 24/-3
x = -8
= -2(x-7)
= -2(-8-7)
= 30

Answer:
5:9
Step-by-step explanation:
It's just a way to set up ratios. Whichever number is said first gets put down first, then the number after gets put after.
So, 5:9
Or, you could write it as 5 footballs to 9 baseballs.
This is just my simple understanding of what you're asking since you asked what the ratio is.
Hope I helped!
Answer:
The number of seashells he have in his collection all together is <u>140</u>.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Stanley has a collection of seashells. He found 35% of his collection on Florida beaches.
Stanley has 49 seashells from Florida.
Now, to find the number of seashells of his collection altogether.
Let the number of seashells all together be 
Percentage of seashells found on Florida beaches = 35%.
Number of seashells found on Florida beaches = 49.
Now, to get the number of seashells altogether we put an equation:
⇒ 
⇒ 
⇒ 
Dividing both sides by 0.35 we get:
⇒ 
Therefore, the number of seashells he have in his collection all together is 140.
Answer: 300
We know that 5×3=15. Since we are trying to get 1500 we Multiply 300×5 and get 1500.
<u>How do we know?</u>
- As you can see if you cross out 2 of the 0 in 300 you have 3×5. When you multiply it you get 15.
- Also if you cross out 1 of the 0 in 300 you have 30×5. When you multiply that you get 150.
As you see when you still multiply either of those problems you have 15 in it. So we should know 300×5=1500.
Note: We can also multiply 500×3 and get 1500. You still get the same answer but just switched numbers.
