The sum of 5 times a number and 8 is equal to 9

Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

The unknown number is $\frac{1}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's make the unknown number x.

The sum of 5 TIMES a number (x) & 8 is 9.

Let's write it mathematically.

5x + 8 =9

We are trying to find the unknown number, so let's remove all the numbers from the left side to find x. Minus 8.

5x=1

5x is basically 5 times x, so to find x, we need to divide and from there we can remove 5.

x= $\frac{1}{5}$

Jen ran 3/4 mile in 18 minutes at 9 am and 2 1/4 miles in 27 minutes at 6 pm. Is this proportional or non proportional?

VMariaS [17]

Answer:

It's non-proportional

Step-by-step explanation:

You could tell every 1/4 mile is 6 minutes, so every other number should be a multiple of 6 if it is a multiple of 1/4. 27 is not a multiple of 6.
