Answer:
x=2
Step-by-step explanation:
3x+17=14x-5 so...
22=11x (subtract 3x and add 5 to both sides)
2=x (divide both sides by 11)
30 gallons of red paint & 20 gallons of blue paint
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of red to blue paint drops to make purple paint is 3 : 2
Therefore the total number of gallon, in this case, fifty (50) is equivalent to the total of two ratios (which is 3 + 2 5)
If 5 in the ratio = 50; what about 2 & 3
5 = 50
2 = x
After cross multiplication;
5x = 50 * 2
X = 100/5
X = 20
The same for ratio 3
5 = 50
3 = y
5y = 50 * 3
y = 150/5
y = 30
The answer is therefore; 30 gallons of red paint to 20 gallons of blue paint
