Answer:
x = 26
Step-by-step explanation:
1 / 3 (x - 2) = 1 / 5 (x + 4) + 2
1/3x - 2/3 = 1/5x + 4/5 + 2
1/3x - 1/5x = 4/5 + 2/3 + 2
(5x - 3x)/15 = (12 + 10 + 30) / 15
2x / 15 = 52 / 15
2x = 52
x = 52 / 2
x = 26
Answer: The answers are in the steps.
Step-by-step explanation:
1. The ratio of monkeys to bananas 4 : 6.
2. 6/4 = 1.5 each monkey gets to eat 1 and a half banana.
3. Since there are 4 monkeys and 6 bananas it means that there are 10 total outcomes. so the chance of pulling monkey is 4/10 which reduces to 2/5.
4. The chance of pulling a banana is 6/10 which reduces to 3/5
5. The ratio of gallons of water to monkeys is 9 : 4.
The answer is 30 cups
Let x be a multiplier. So:
2x + 5x + 9x = 96
16x = 96
x = 96/16
x = 6 cups
Since the number of onion cups is 5x, then 5 * 6 = 30 cups are needed to make 96 cups of salsa.
The true statements are (1) and (2)
