Answer:
x= 10/13
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we need to put the variable on one side and the constants on another side.
Also a positive and a negative equal a negative. [this is related to +(-8)]
10x+(-8)= -3x+2
+3x +3x
13x-8=2
+8 +8
13x=10
Finally you divide on both sides
13x/13=10/13
x= 10/13
I hope this is right! I tried my best
First, we must express the ratio of rent to Joel's total earning. 375 out of 1500 in its simplest form is 1/4. To express a value in percentage, we must multiply it to 100. Thus, for this case, we have
1/4 x 100 = 25%
That means, out of a total of 100%, Joel spends 25%<span>of his income on rent.</span>
