1. combine like terms (2x and -7x) to create -5x
2. subtract 5 from each side to create: -5x=10
3. divide both sides by -5
4. x=-2
Answer:(E). 25:2
Step-by-step explanation:
First ratio:
Us : India is 5 : 2
Second ratio
India : British is 5 : 1
multiply(5:2) by 5 and multiply (5:1) by 2 to balance the India stamps.
Therefore now
Us : India is 25 : 10
India : British is 10 : 2
The ratio of us : British is 25:2
5.7y-5.2=y/2.5
Add 5.2 to both sides:
5.7y = y/2.5 + 5.2
y/2.5 = 0.4y
5.7y = 0.4y + 5.2
Subtract 0.4y from both sides:
5.3y = 5.2
Divide both sides by 5.3:
y = 5.2/5.3
y = 0.98113
