You would eat 3/10 of the box because 3/4 times 2/5 is 3/10. Whenever you see the word "of" it means multiplication.
Answer:
If 5x-2 = 3x+4, then x=3
Step-by-step explanation:
5x-2=3x+4
Add 2 to both sides, and you get 5x=3x+6. Subtract 3x from both sides, and you get 2x=6. Divide both sides by 2, and what's left is x=3. Hope this helps. :)
Zero
There is no solution for these equations as there is no even one point of intersection between them
4x - 5y = 24
4(6) - 5(0) = 24
24 - 0 = 24
24 = 24 (correct)....so (6,0) is a solution
4(1) - 5(-4) = 24
4 + 20 = 24
24 = 24 (correct)...and (1,-4) is a solution
