The left side of the equation subtracts x from 2x.
That means 1x, or just simply x, is left on the left side.
We now have this: x = 6
So, x is 6. Hope this helps!
Answer:
74.8 ft÷3.4 inches=264
2.1 in x 264=46.2 inches so the width should be 46.2 inches
The algebraic expression for given statement is: 10x + 25 or 3(x + 4) + (7x + 13)
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given the statement:
Three sets of a sum of a number and four are added to the sum of seven times the same number and thirteen
Let us first understand the given statement,
Let the number be "x"
" sum of a number and four" means x + 4
"Three sets of a sum of a number and four" translated to 3(x + 4)
"sum of seven times the same number and thirteen" means 7x + 13
<em><u>Thus the algebraic expression for given statement is:</u></em>

<em><u>Using distributive property in above expression</u></em>

Therefore,

<em><u>Combine the like terms</u></em>

Thus the required expression for given statement is: 10x + 25 or 3(x + 4) + (7x + 13)
If you have 8 yellow balloons for every 12 blue balloons, then if you have 20 balloons in total, 8 out of 20 of those balloons will be yellow. Then you can set up this ratio.
Then, you can use either cross multiplication or multiply the numerator and denominator by the same number to help solve for x. Personally, I prefer cross multiplication.
Finally, solve for x and if you had 100 balloons, you will have 40 yellow balloons.
