Answer:x=4
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve
10(x+1)=56-2(x-1)
Open the brackets
10x+10=56-2x+2
Collect like terms
10x+2x=56-10+2
12x=48
Divide through by 12
x=4
X/-7 -2 =10
x/-7 = 12
x = -84
Answer:
9
Step-by-step explanation:
1.)Find the amount of women within the 120 people in the meeting. So 3/10*120 , you get 36.
2.)Add 24 to 120 to get the new amount of people in the room. So 144.
3.)Using the new ratio 11:5 , find the amount of total women out of 144 people . So 5/16*144 , you get 45.
4.)Now minus the 2 amounts of initial women from the amount of total new women , to get the difference to find out how many women are there in the 24 people. So 45-36 , you get 9
