1.
Calculate the sum
5x - 10 + 7 = 65 - 20x + 32
Move terms
5x - 3 = 97 - 20x
Collect the like terms and calculate
5x + 20x = 97 +3
Divide both sides by 25
25x = 100

I skipped some steps because it would be too long :/
2.
Multiply parenthesis by 8
20x>8(4x - 5) -20
Calculate
20x>32x - 40 - 20
Move variable to the left
20x>32x-60
Collect like terms
20x - 32x > -60
Divide both sides by -12
-12x>-60

Answer:
232 cars
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's say the number of cars that entered is c.
At 9:00 am, there are a total of 24 + c cars and 64 trucks. We know that this value of 64 represents 1/5 of the total number of vehicles. The total number of vehicles is (24 + c) + 64 = 88 + c. So, we have:
64/(88 + c) = 1/5
Cross-multiply:
88 + c = 64 * 5 = 320
c = 320 - 88 = 232
Thus, the answer is 232 cars.
Note: as 232 doesn't show up in the answer choices, it's possible that the problem was copied correctly.
