All we have to do is multiply by two
4 3/4 * 2 = 9 1/2
1/2 * 2 = 1
2 1/2 * 2 = 5
Answer:
5 shirts must be sold.
Step-by-step explanation:
First, set up the equation. Each shirt (x) is sold for $16:
For every amount (y) for x: (y)(x) = (16)(y)
The cost is $4, with the setup fee as $60.
(16)(y) = (4)(y) + 60
16y = 4y + 60
Isolate the variable (y). Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. First, subtract 4y from both sides.
16y (-4y) = 4y (-4y) + 60
16y - 4y = 60
12y = 60
Next, isolate the variable (y). Divide 12 from both sides.
(12y)/12 = (60)/12
y = 60/12
y = 5
5 shirts must be sold.
To check, plug in 5 for y in the equation:
16y = 4y + 60
16(5) = 4(5) + 60
Simplify.
16(5) = 4(5) + 60
80 = 4(5) + 60
80 = 20 + 60
80 = 80 (True).

33 photos in a 4x to 7x ratio
4x + 7x = 33
11x = 33
x = 3
33 photos can be put in a 4(3) to 7(3) ratio
which is a 12 to 21 ratio
so 12 photos on one side, and 21 on the other side to get the ratio of 4 to 7
