Answer from: ksanquist1212

solve for X

17-4x=33

-4x=33-17

-4x=16

-4x/-4=16/-4

x=-4

Step-by-step explanation:

1. move the constant (17) to the right side

2. subtract the numbers on the right side (33-17)

3. Divide both sides of the equation by -4 (/4)

4. write the answer x= -4

Answer from: Quest

step-by-step explanation:

the ratio of red paint to blue paint is always 9/7. that means that, whatever x's value, (4x+12)/(4x-4) has that same ratio. so, set up an equation and cross-multiply to solve for x:

 

9/7 = (4x+12)/(4x-4)

9(4x-4) = 7(4x+12)

36x - 36 = 28x + 84

8x - 36 = 84

8x = 120

x = 15
