Answer:

$x = 2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Distribute

$9(x + 1) = 25 + x$

$(9 * x) + (9 * 1) = 25 + x$

$9x + 9 = 25 + x$

Step 2: Subtract x from both sides

$9x + 9 - x = 25 + x - x$

$8x + 9 = 25$

Step 3: Subtract 9 from both sides

$8x + 9 - 9 = 25 - 9$

$8x = 16$

Step 4: Divide both sides by 8

$8x / 8 = 16 / 8$

$x = 2$

Answer:

$x=2$

Step-by-step explanation:

$9(x+1) = 25+x$

Distribute the 9:

$9x+9=25+x$

Subtract x on both sides:

$8x+9=25$

Subtract 9 on both sides:

$8x=16$

Divide both sides by 8:

$x=2$

Elis [28]

Answer:

2/5 hour is closest to 0 1/2 hours, 5/8 hour is closest to 1/2 hour. Therefore, the best estimate for the total time Maria spent with her sister is close to 1 hour

Step-by-step explanation:

We can represent the time Maria spends playing the game as 0.4, since 2/5 as a fraction is 0.4. This is closer to 1/2, which is 0.5 then it is to 0, because 4 is closer to 5 then 0. Then, we can represent the time Maria reads the book as 0.625, which is closer to 1/2 then it is to 1. Now we can add the estimated times. $1/2+1/2=1$ hour

Ms.Omar runs the school tennis club. She has a bin of tennis balls and rackets. For every 5 tennis balls in the bin, there are 3

stepan [7]

Answer:

see the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> number of tennis balls

y ----> number of tennis rackets

we know that

To find out the ratio of tennis balls to tennis rackets, divide the number of tennis ball by the number of tennis rackets

In this problem we have

$\frac{x}{y}=\frac{5}{3}$

$x=\frac{5}{3}y$

That means

The number of tennis balls is three-fifths times the number of tennis rackets

see the attached figure to better understand the problem
