The answer would be D) x = 11.
Add 5 to both sides (5x = 50 + 5)
Simplify 50 + 5 to 55 (5x = 55)
Divide both sides by 5 (x = 55/5)
Simplify 55/5 to 11 (x = 11)
Answer:
13.75
Step-by-step explanation:
make a ratio between the original lengths, 11 : 5.5
then put the ratio of the enlarged lengths, 27.5 : __
now you divide 27.5 by 11 to find how many times you multiplied the lengths, 2.5.
now you multiply 5.5 by 2.5 giving you the answer of 13.75
The answer is 26 its a combinatio0n problem
X= # students who got lower grades
2x+3= # students with grade A
STEP 1:
Add the two sets above equal to 24.
x + (2x + 3)= 24
combine like terms
3x + 3= 24
subtract 3 from both sides
3x= 21
divide both sides by 3
x= 7 (# students lower than A)
STEP 2:
substitute x value from step 1 to find # grade A students
=2x + 3
=2(7) + 3
=14 + 3
=17 (# grade A students)
CHECK:
x + (2x + 3)= 24
7 + 2(7) + 3= 24
7 + 14 + 3= 24
24= 24
ANSWER: There were 17 students with grade A.
Hope this helps! :)
