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

If you have a job that earns $120 in 2 days, how much would you earn in 6 days? Use a chart to show the proportion of earnings f
zepelin [54]
To figure this out, we need to use fractional proportions.

Currently, we have $120, the amount earned, and 2 days, the current rate.
Our fraction for this is: 120 / 2 = x / 6, x being the amount earned in 6 days.

Let's use a little technique to help us answer faster.

With our current money earned, 120, and our current days, 2, we can divide 120 by 2 to find out how many we earned in 1 day.

120 / 2 = 60.

We earned $60 per day.

With this formula, 60d, d being the amount of days, we can solve quicker.

We are solving for 6 days, so multiply $60 by 6 days.

60 x 6 = 360

Your proportion is : 

120/2 : 360/6

I hope this helps!
