Answer:
x=3
Step-by-step explanation:
2(x+1)=x+5
Use the distributive property to multiply 2 by x+1.
2x+2=x+5
Subtract x from both sides.
2x+2−x=5
Combine 2x and −x to get x.
x+2=5
Subtract 2 from both sides.
x=5−2
Subtract 2 from 5 to get 3.
x=3
0.85$ for 1 cups
1$ for 1/0.85 cups
55.25$ for [1/0.85]*55.25 = 55.25/0.85 = 65 cups
Answer:
c) 
Step-by-step explanation:
−2 = −⅔[5] + b
−3⅓
1⅓ = b
y = −⅔x + 1⅓
Then convert to Standard Form:
y = −⅔x + 1⅓
+⅔x + ⅔x
__________
⅔x + y = 1⅓ [We do not want fractions in our Standard Equation, so multiply by the denominator to get rid of it.]
3[⅔x + y = 1⅓]

* 1⅓ = 4⁄3
