Answer:

5:14

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of adults to children using the form 1:n would look like this:

number of adults : number of children

So:

5 adults : 14 children = 5:14

Answer:

1 : 2.8

Step-by-step explanation:

in such a case what the question is asking you to is to compare the numbers and simplify them with the left hand number.

ratio of adult to children

write it as 5:14

put the 1 :n underneath

5  :  14   what we want to find is the n. among the 2 sides one is complete                      

1   :   n      only whole numbers. to get n look at the complete side . if

                    5:1      14=14 x 1 /5(cross multiplication). or you can

divide both sides by the left hand number(5)

<u>5</u>   and   <u>14 </u>   =   1 :  2.8

5              5

the n is what we were trying to find and compare it to 1

this means for every 1 adult there are 2.8 children

2+x5-3=(2+)x(5-3) is the equation true or not show work why
VLD [36.1K]
This equation has some nested grouping symbols on the left-hand side. As usual, I'll simplify from the inside out. I'll start by inserting the "understood" 1 in front of that innermost set of parentheses:

3 + 2[4x – (4 + 3x)] = –1

3 + 2[4x – 1(4 + 3x)] = –1

3 + 2[4x – 1(4) – 1(3x)] = –1

3 + 2[4x – 4 – 3x] = –1

3 + 2[1x – 4] = –1

3 + 2[1x] + 2[–4] = –1

3 + 2x – 8 = –1

2x + 3 – 8 = –1

2x – 5 = –1

2x – 5 + 5 = –1 + 5

2x = 4

x = 2
It is not required that you write out this many steps; once you get comfortable with the process, you'll probably do a lot of this in your head. But until you reach that comfort zone, you should write things out at least this clearly and completely.

Always remember, by the way, that you can check your answers in "solving" problems by plugging the numerical answer back in to the original equation. In this case, the variable is only in terms on the left-hand side (LHS) of the equation; my "check" (that is, my evaluation at the solution value) looks like this:

LHS: 3 + 2[4x – (4 + 3x)]:

3 + 2[4(2) – (4 + 3(2))]

3 + 2[8 – (4 + 6)]

3 + 2[8 – (10)]

3 + 2[–2]

3 – 4

–1
Since this is what I was supposed to get for the right-hand side (that is, I've shown that the LHS is equal to the RHS), my solution value was correct.
