Answer:
x = - 3
Step-by-step explanation:
2x - 10 + 6 = 7x - 7 - 2x + 12
2x - 4 = 5x + 5
- 5 - 4 = 5x - 2x
-9 = 3x
x = - 9/3
x = - 3
Answer:
32 jelly beans were in the bag
Step-by-step explanation:
We know 75% is 3/4 and that she ate 24, so divide 24 by 3 then multiply it by 4:
24/3= 8
8 x 4 = 32
There are 64 people in the room.
Since the ratio for women increases 1 when 8 women enter the room, for every time there is 1 in the ratio there are 8 people. That means that originally you have to do 3x8 and 4x8. You get 24 and 32 which equals 56. Then when 8 more women enter the room, you get 64.
