Hello!
2x + 1 = 5x - 8
Solve by subtracting both sides by 2x:
2x - 2x + 1 = 5x - 2x - 8
1 = 3x - 8
Add 8 to both sides:
1 + 8 = 3x - 8 + 8
9 = 3x
Divide both sides by 3:
9/3 = 3x/3
x = 3
Answer:
option B. G
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
y ---->ounces of orange juice
x ---> ounces of pineapple juice
we know that
The ratio of orange juice to pineapple juice is equal to
substitute the given values
simplify
<u><em>Verify each graph</em></u>
Remember that the formula of slope is "rise over run", where the "rise" (means change in y, up or down) and the "run" (means change in x, left or right)
we have
that means
5 ounces of orange juice per 3 ounces of pineapple juice
Graph F
The slope is
Graph G
The slope is
Graph H
The slope is
Graph J
The slope is
The value of 2 is the value closest to 1.67
therefore
The graph that has a slope that best represents the ratio of orange juice to pineapple juice is Graph G
