Hi there!

To solve x/2 = -5, you would have to multiply 2 on both sides, so that we can have x instead of x/2.

x/2 × 2 = -5 × 2
x = -10

Your answer is C. x = -10.

Hope this helped! :)

Construct the graph of the equation y=kx if it is known that the point B belongs to the graph. The graph of which of these two e
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

The graph with B(2,-3) i.e) y=\frac{-3}{2} x goes through the point M(-10,15).

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider M(-10,15) and given that equation is y = kx.

Now, substitute M(-10,15) in the equation

⇒ 15 = k × -10

⇒ k = \frac{15}{-10} = \frac{-3}{2}

⇒ y = \frac{-3}{2} x

Now, check with the given points B(2,-3) and B(3\frac{1}{3} , -2)

1) B(2,-3)

y = \frac{-3}{2} x

⇒(-3) = \frac{-3}{2} × 2

⇒ -3 = -3 ⇒ LHS = RHS

⇒ B(2,-3) is the required point.

2) for b(3\frac{1}{3} , -2)

LHS ≠ RHS.

So,The graph with B(2,-3) i.e) y=\frac{-3}{2} x goes through the point M(-10,15).

At a gas station, it takes 14 seconds to pump 2 gallons of gas. if the amount of gasoline pumped varies directly with time, how
EleoNora [17]

Answer:

See below:

Step-by-step explanation:

If we do this, we know that 2 gallons takes 14 seconds. (2:14)

Based on that data, we can know that 1 gallon takes 7 seconds. (1:7)

-> 2/14 = 1/7

Now we can multiply by 12 to get 12 gallons on one side.

What we do on one side has to happen to the other side.

So, 12 gallons * 1 gallons = 12 gallons and 12 gallons * 7 gallons = 84 gallons.

So the final answer is 85 gallons,

Ajax is 5 and 1 fourth feet tall. His sister is 3 eighths foot shorter than Ajax How tall is Ajax Sister?
user100 [1]

Answer:

4\frac{3}{4} feet tall

Step-by-step explanation:

Ajax is "5 and 1 fourth feet tall", which can be written as the mixed number 5\frac{1}{4} .

His sister is "3 eighths foot shorter", so she's 3/8 feet shorter than 5 1/4.

So, this is just a subtraction problem:

5\frac{1}{4} -\frac{3}{8}

To solve this, we want to convert 5 1/4 into an improper fraction, which is: \frac{21}{4} . Now, we want to find a common denominator. In this case, that common denominator is 8, so \frac{21}{4} =\frac{42}{8} .

Finally, we subtract 3/8 from 42/8: \frac{42}{8} -\frac{3}{8} =\frac{39}{8} . So, Ajax's sister is 39/8 feet. Converting this into a mixed number, we have: 39/8 = 4\frac{6}{8} =4\frac{3}{4} .

Therefore, Ajax's sister is 4\frac{3}{4} feet tall.

Hope this helps!
