What is the solution to the equation 1/4x + 2 = - 5/8x - 5?

SOLUTION:

=) 1/4x + 5/8x = -5 -2

=) (2+5)/8x = -7

=) 7/8x = -7

=) x = (-7×8)/7

=) x = -56/7

=) x = -8

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.
