Yes, this theater has more floor seats than balcony seats simply because of the ratio. Your answer is actually in the question. For example, if you have 100 floor seats, then according to the ratio you should only have 5 balcony seats. So yes, there are more floor seats than balcony seats.
We can distribute
2(5)+2(-x)=10-2x
we get
8+10-2x=?
18-2x=?
whatever that ? is, we don't know
multiply both sides by -1
2x-18=-?
add 18 to both sides
2x=18-?
divide bth sides by 2
x=9-(?/2)
whatever the left side it, just divide it by 2 and subtract it from 9
F(5)= 3.(5)+2=15+2=17
Another example: F(0)=3.(0)+2=0+2=2
You just replace the value in the two sides.
Answer:
h = -4
Step-by-step explanation:
7h-5(3h-8) = 72
Distribute
7h - 15h +40 = 72
Combine like terms
-8h +40 = 72
Subtract 40 from each side
-8h+40-40 = 72-40
-8h = 32
Divide each side by -8
-8h/-8 = -32/-8
h = -4
