Answer:
There are no solutions.
Step-by-step explanation:
5x-5=5(x+1)
5x-5=5x+5
+5 +5
5x=5x+10
-5x -5x
0x=10

Here is the information we have:
1. The perimeter is at most 130 cm.
2. The length of the rectangle is 4 times the width.
We can let l stand for length and w for width.
The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is 2l + 2w.
We have to change the formula a bit.
The length of this rectangle is going to be 4 times the width
So, replace 2l with 2(4w).
Then make this equation equal to 130.
2(4w) + 2w = 130 ; Start
8w + 2w = 130 ; Distribute the 2 across the 4w
10w = 130 ; Combine the like terms 8w and 2w
w = 13 ; Divide both sides by the coefficient of w. Which is 10
The given ratio of powder to water is 3:2 based on weight for Kool-aide. It is also given that 120g of flavored powder is needed for a certain amount of Kool-aide.
Let us assume that the amount of water (by weight) required to maintain the given ratio of 3:2 be represented by the letter 
. Thus, from the given information we can conclude that:
Cross-multiplying we get:
grams.
Thus, the amount of water in grams in that Kool-aide is 80 grams.
