Answer:

5x - 6 = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

1. We know that we don't know the actual number. We can use x to sub in for that number.

2. We also know that the equivalent eventually gets us to 8, so write:

  • x=8

3. The equation multiplies the number by 5, and then subtracts 6. It must be in this order because of PEMDAS. Write like so:

  • 5x- 6 = 8

You could solve it too, if you like:

  1. 5x = 8+6
  2. 5x = 14
  3. x = 14/5
  4. x= 2.8

Then feel free to check your answer, substituting 2.8 for x:

  1. 5(2.8) - 6 = 8
  2. 14 - 6 = 8
  3. 8 = 8

Hope that helped

10 2.5 16 4 ? 7.5 48 12 Which statement explains how to find the number of minutes it takes to bike 7.5 miles? Find the ratio of
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

Find the ratio of minutes to miles, 4:1. Multiply 7.5 by 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Minutes: 10 || 16 || ?  || 48

-----Miles: 2.5 || 4 || 7.5 || 12

Required

Which statements solve for the missing value?

First, we need to calculate the ratio of minutes to mile

Ratio = \frac{Minutes}{Mile}

When minutes = 16; mile = 4

So, we have:

Ratio = \frac{16}{4}

Ratio = 4

Next, we multiply the ratio by 7.5

Minutes = Ratio * 7.5

Minutes =4 * 7.5

Minutes = 30

<em>Hence, option B answers the question.</em>
