If we were to simplify this it would equal the same equation because this cannot be solved. Due to there being no like terms. We also need to know what x equals which there is no number given here to solve. Have a great day!
Answer:
A- X= 20÷5-3
B- 20÷5=4; 4-3=1
C- X=1
Step-by-step explanation:
Okay, well we have to work backwards. 20 cookies, and she makes 5 bags. We need to find out what 'x' means. To do that, we take 20 cookies and divide it by 5. 4 cookies. Then we want to take 3 cookies out of each bag to find out how many cookies she first put in. 1 cookie.
Let's check:
bag 1:
o (one cookie)
bag 2:
o (one cookie)
bag 3:
o (one cookie)
bag 4:
o (one cookie)
bag 5:
o (one cookie)
Now we have 15 cookies left. Now let's put 3 in each:
bag 1:
o (one cookie)
v v v ( three cookies)
bag 2:
o (one cookie)
v v v ( three cookies)
bag 3:
o (one cookie)
v v v ( three cookies)
bag 4:
o (one cookie)
v v v ( three cookies)
bag 5:
o (one cookie)
v v v ( three cookies)
Now we have no cookies left, and we put 4 cookies in each. (o representing the first cookie, v representing the next three cookies)
The amount, in oz of butterscotch chips needed by proportional reasoning is; 75oz.
<h3>What is the amount of butterscotch chips needed by proportional reasoning?</h3>
It follows from the task content that the the amount of butterscotch chips needed can be determined by means of the proportion premise declared in which case;
- The recipe requires 3 times as many chocolate chips as butterscotch chips.
Hence, when 25oz of chocolate chips is used, the amount of butterscotch needed is 3 times 25 and hence, = 3 × 25 = 75oz.

Answer: a
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
9 > - 2m + 2 - 3, that is
9 > - 2m - 1 ( add 1 to both sides )
10 > - 2m
Divide both sides by - 2, reversing the symbol as a result if dividing by a negative quantity.
- 5 < m , thus
m > - 5 → A
