Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Write the equation

2x + 1 + 5x - 8

2. Add 8 on both sides

2x + 9 = 5x

3. Get the variables together

9 = 3x

4. Solve for x and divide both sides by 3

x = 3

Hello!

\large\boxed{x = 3}

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

A sports apparel company surveyed the market about the size of T-shirts people most frequently buy: small, medium, large, or ext
goblinko [34]
First off we need to find the denomonator:
11+37+83+19=150

Okay so our probability of getting a small size of a t-shirt will be 11/150
They sold 45,000
That's where we need to change our denominator to get how many shirts were small

45,000÷150=300
300×11=3,300
I multiplied 11 because of the numerator

So our answer is B. 3300

A candy store held a contest to guess the total number of jelly beans in a jar. All of the jelly beans in the jar were either gr
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of orange jelly beans be x , as we do not know the exact value of it yet. There are 12 times as many green jelly beans than the orange ones. So , if the number of orange jelly beans is x , the number of green jelly beans will be = 12 times x , which can be written as 12x. Now there are a total of 1872 jelly beans , but they are either orange or green , so we already know that the number of orange jbs is x , and the number of green jelly beans is 12x. So if we the green jelly beans and orange jelly beans , it should be 1872.

Now all we need to do is to find x.

We know that ,

x + 12x = 1872

Now we add x and 12x on the left hand side

13x = 1872

Now we divide both sides by 13 to get x. (That includes 1872 as well)

x = 144

Now we have the value of x which is 144

We know that the number of green jelly beans was 12 times x

So the number of green jelly beans in numeric value is : 12 * 144

As x is equal to 144

Ans . : The number of green jelly beans is 1728.
