Answer:
1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
x + 9 = -15x = [1]
x - x + 9 = -15x -x = 1
9 - 1 = -16x
8 = 16x
8/16 = 16/16x
1/2 = x
Hope this helps
I don’t think so but divide the top one by the bottom one for every one of them and if it is all the same answer they are proportional x/y
What we know:
Petrolyn motor oil is a combination of natural oil and synthetic oil. It contains 7 liters of natural oil for every 5 liters of synthetic oil.
What we need to find:
If 355 liters of synthetic oil are used, how many liters of petrolyn oil will be made?
Set up a proportion to find how much natural oil is used.
7L natural oil/5L synthetic oil = x/355 synthetic oil where x=natural oil
7/5=x/355
(5)(x)=(7)(355) cross multiplied
5x=2485 simplified
5/5x=2485/5 multiplicative inverse
x=497L
Now, add both synthetic oil and natural oil to find amount of petrolyn oil.
355 L synthetic oil + 497 L natural oil= 852 L of petrolyn oil
