To solve for x, first you need to isolate all x terms on the same side so:

you start with 5 + 4x = 54 - 3x

subtract 5 from both sides to get 5 onto the left side

now you should have 4x = 49 - 3x

now add 3x to both sides to get 3x onto the right side

now you should have 7x = 49

now that you have your x on one side you can solve this like a regular one step equation and divide both sides by 7

this leads you to your answer of x = 7

hope this helps!

in a chemistry class, the ratio of girls to boys is 2 to 1. if there are 30 students in the class how many girls are there​
VLD [36.1K]
Firstly, we can simplify the ratio of boys to girls to
1
:
2
.
Then, to find out how many students each ratio represents, we add up
1 and 2 to get 3
(1+2=3)
By dividing 3
by the number of students, we can find how many students ONE ratio represents:
24 3=8

So ONE ratio is equal to 8
boys. Since our simplified ratio of boys to girls is
1:2
already, we do not have to do further multiplying - the number of boys is simply 8.
For the girls, simply multiply 2 by 8 to get 16

Check: 8 boys + 18 girls = 24students
