Answer:
Solution x = - 1
Step-by-step explanation:
3 / (2x+1) = 9 / 3x
Cross multiply
3(3x) = 9(2x + 1)
Distributive property
9x = 18x + 9
Subtract 18x from both sides
-9x = 9
Divide both sides by -9
x = -1
So assuming that the total =27
r+b=27
r=-5+3b
r=3b-5
subsitute 3b-5 for r in first equation
3b-5+b=27
4b-5=27
add 5
4b=32
divide by 4
b=8
subsitute
b+r=27
8+r=27
subtracct 8
r=19
red=19
blue=8
Answer: The person next to you ate more popcorn.
Step-by-step explanation:
3 divided by 4 is 0.75, which is equivalent to 75%. 4 divided by 5 is 0.8, which is equivalent to 80%. Now that you've calculated the percentages of how much they ate, you can assume that 80 > 75 (80 is greater than 75).
