Answer:

x < 40

Step-by-step explanation:

1 lbs for 5 pigs

The ratio is 1 lbs/ 5 pigs

Let x be the number of pigs

Take the ratio and multiply by the number of pigs, this has to be less than the amount of food in the stor

x * 1/5 < 8

Multiply each side by 5

x * 1/5 * 5 < 8*5

x < 40

Which of the following describes the correct process for solving the equation 2x − 4 = 20 and arrives at the correct solution?
Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

a) Add 4 to both sides, and then divide by 2. The solution is x=12.

Step-by-step explanation:

Question:

Which of the following describes the correct process for solving the equation 2x − 4 = 20 and arrives at the correct solution?

a) Add 4 to both sides, and then divide by 2. The solution is x = 12.

b) Divide both sides by −4, and then subtract 2. The solution is x = −7.

c) Subtract 4 from both sides, and then divide by 2. The solution is x = −12.

d) Multiply both sides by −4, and then divide by 2. The solution is x = −40.

Solution:

Given equation:

2x-4=20

We need to determine the steps in order to solve for x.

Solving for x.

Step 1: Adding 4 both sides.

2x-4+4=20+4

2x=24

Step 2: Dividing both sides by 2.

\frac{2x}{2}=\frac{24}{2}

∴ x=12

Thus, we added 4 both sides and then divided both sides by 2 to get solution = 12
