<span>Sheila can ride her bicycle 6000 meters in 15 minutes.
Forming that into a ratio, that will be 6000 : 15
Doing the proportion for 2 minutes.
6000 : 15 = X : 2
Doing the computation.
6000 / 15 = X / 2
15X = 2 * 6000
15X = 12000
X = 800
So Sheila covered a total of 800 meters in 2 minutes.</span>
Answer:
C. 1 and 3
Step-by-step explanation:
You are right, now here's why.
You are looking for two equations that have the same constant of proportionality. That means they behave the same, that if you enter a X value in one, you'll get the same effect as if you enter it in another.
If you look at all four equations, you'll see that 1 and 3 are essentially the same thing, just that the first one is simplified (4y = 3x) while the other isn't (8y = 6x). But for each time you enter a X value, the Y value will be 33% (1/3) bigger.
Answer:
whole number and a fraction
Hey there!
Let's solve this equation.
5x+3x-4=10
add the x's
8x-4=10
add 4 to both sides
8x=10+4
8x=14
divide both sides by 8
x=14/8
Reduce the fraction;
x=7/4 (improper fraction)
x=1+3/4 (mixed number)
Hence, the equation has 1 solution.
Hope everything is clear.
Let me know if you have any questions!
