6:20=9:30=3:10=18:60=16:160/3=12:40
Step-by-step explanation:
The question requires you to find value of x in the ratios given;
Start with the first pair
6:20 = 9:x
6/20 =9/x
6x=20*9
6x=180
x=180/6=30 ⇒⇒ 6:20 = 9:30
The second pair after replacing the value of x=30 will be
9:30 = x:10
9/30=x/10
90=30x
90/30 =x
3=x⇒⇒ 9:30 = 3:10
The third pair after replacing value of x=3 will be
3:10 =x:60
3/10 =x/60
180=10x
180/10 =x
18=x ⇒⇒ 3:10 = 18:60
The fourth pair after replacing value of x=18 will be;
18:60 = 16:x
18/60 = 16/x
18x=16*60
x= (16*60)/18 =160/3
x= 160/3 ⇒⇒⇒ 18:60 = 16: 160/3
The firth pair after replacing value of x=160/3 will be;
16: 160/3 =12:x
16x= 160/3 *12
16x = 160 * 4
x= (160 *4 )/16
x=40
⇒⇒ 16: 160/3 = 12: 40

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Find two numbers that add to make the coefficient of x (in this case, -5) and that multiply to make the constant term multiplied by the coefficient of x^2 (in this case, -2 x 3 = -6)
Two numbers that work are -6 and +1
-6 x +1 = -6
-6 + -1 = -5
2. Split the middle term into the two numbers that you found.
3x^2 -6x +x -2 = 0
I've put the -6 on the left side because in our next step, when we factorise, it will be easier than having the numbers the other way around.
3. Factorise the left side by taking out common factors from each pair. The pairs I'm talking about here are '3x^2 and -6x', and 'x and -2'
3x (x-2) +1 (x-2) = 0
4. You now have two numbers both being multiplied by the term x-2. We can rearrange this equation to give us two brackets being multiplied by each other.
(3x + 1) (x-2) = 0
5. According to the Null Factor Law, if two terms are multiplied together and the result is 0, then one of those terms must be 0. Make both terms equal to 0 and solve each for x.
3x + 1 = 0 x-2 = 0
3x = -1 x = 2
x = -1/3
6. The solutions to this equation are x = 2 and x = -1/3
Let the number be x and 2x-5 from the above given condition
x+2x-5=70
or
3x=75 s0 x=25
Hence, the number are 25 and 45
