5/4 = b/36 show all steps please

1 answer:

8 0

The two equations are scale factors, to find the missing number, divide the equations by each other.

36 ÷ 4 = 9.

The scale factor is 9, so multiply 5 by 9 to find b.

5 × 9 = 45.

B = 45.

I hope that helps!

Solve 0.9(7x + 14) = 1.5 - (x + 2)

Triss [41]

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 0.9(7x+14)=1.5-(x+2)$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 6.3x+12.6=1.5-x-2$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 63x+12.6=-x-0.5$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 63x+x=-0.5-12.6$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 64x=-13.1$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto x=\dfrac{-13.1}{64}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto x=0.2$

a companys product development division has 60 employees. Of these, 1/3 are engineers. If 40% of engineers are moved to another

Musya8 [376]

Answer: There will be 12 engineers remaining in the product development department.

Step-by-step explanation:

So the givens are:

60 employees and 1/3 are engineers and if 40% of engineers are moved to another division and how many engineers will remain in the product development department?

So what we need to do:

60 * 1/3 = 60 / 3 = 20

There are 20 engineers.

20 * 40% = 8

There are 8 engineers that are going to be moved to another division.

20 - 8 = 12

12 engineers will remain in the development department.

Hence, your answer.

Helppppppppppppooppppoopp

Lyrx [107]

Answer:

Let x rep the lenght of the shorter one

Then the longer one is 2x+1

Therefore

(2x+1) + x = 16

We now solve for x

2x + 1 + x = 16

Group and evaluate like terms

3x +1 = 16

3x = 16 -1

× = 15/3

x = 5

So the shorter one is 5 ft

The longer one is 2(5)+1= 11
