If the ratio is 5:7 then the each part has a value of:
60/(5+7)=5 so from a total of 60
5:7 becomes 5*5:7*5 which is:
25:35
Answer:
x = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Since both equations give y in terms of x, equate the right sides
3x - 28 = - 2x + 22 ( add 2x to both sides )
5x - 28 = 22 ( add 28 to both sides )
5x = 50 ( divide both sides by 5 )
x = 10
It’s not 3 or 4 so I think 2
Solve, for the first variable in one of the equation, the substitute the final result into the other equation
