All you are basically doing is making ratios.
Basketball to football would be 5 to 11 or 5:11 or 5/11.
What you do is in the order you said it (basketball to football) you find that info and make it a ratio. A ratio must be simplified and can be written 3 ways, as shown above.
Hockey to lacrosse would be 6 to 10 and simplified would be 3 to 5.
Try doing 3 and 4 and 5 on your own to help you understand it more:) if you have any questions tell me.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
5^2x=7^x+1 ⇔ ln5^2x = ln7^x+1 ⇔ 2xln5 = (x+1)ln7 ⇔ (2ln5-ln7)x = ln7
⇔ x = ln7/(2ln5-ln7)
