Answer:
Distributive
Step-by-step explanation:
You distribute the 5 into 3x+18, multiplying it by each part of the equation (each part is separated by one of these signs: +, -, x, or /) to get 15x (from 5 x 3x) plus 60 (from 5 x 18).
Answer:
x = -5
Step-by-step explanation:
We don't know what equation solver you're supposed to use. Here are the results from one available on the web.
Answer:
12a+60 i think lol
Step-by-step explanation:
this is how i did it though:
12(a+b)
12a+60
If you have 8 yellow balloons for every 12 blue balloons, then if you have 20 balloons in total, 8 out of 20 of those balloons will be yellow. Then you can set up this ratio.
Then, you can use either cross multiplication or multiply the numerator and denominator by the same number to help solve for x. Personally, I prefer cross multiplication.
Finally, solve for x and if you had 100 balloons, you will have 40 yellow balloons.
