Can someone please help me solve for x

x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

These two angles both containing an x are equal. They are called vertically opposite angles.

2x + 62 = 5x + 38               Subtract 2x from both sides

2x-2x + 62 = 5x -2x + 38   Combine

62 = 3x + 38                       Subtract 38 from both sides

62 - 38 = 3x - 38  + 38       Combine

24 = 3x                                Divide both sides by 3

24/3 = 3x/3                         Combine

8 = x

h who knows

step-by-step explanation:

75 tickets have been sold so far.

step-by-step explanation:

in this question it is clearly mentioned that 45 children's tickets have been sold and this number is 60% of the total tickets sold.

now let's assume the total number of tickets sold be x.

then 60% of x = 45

⇒

⇒ x(.6) = 45

by dividing with .6 on both the sides of the equation

⇒ x = 75

therefore 75 tickets have been sold so far.
