The number line has small marks at each tenth and a big mark at each whole number. So, if you wanted to do -6.3, then you would do the same thing you did with -5 1/2(5.5) and count, in this example, three tick marks to the left of the -6 to get where -6.3 is. Same for all of the other ones there.
Solve for m:
1/4 = m/24
1/4 = m/24 is equivalent to m/24 = 1/4:
m/24 = 1/4
Multiply both sides of m/24 = 1/4 by 24:
(24 m)/24 = 24/4
(24 m)/24 = 24/24×m = m:
m = 24/4
24/4 = (4×6)/4 = 6:
Answer: m = 6
Answer:
6
Step-by-step explanation:
We have y ∝ x which is another way of saying y varies directly with x
We can rewrite the direct proportion relation y ∝ x as y = k.x where k is a constant - the constant of proportionality
So y = kx or x = y/k
using y and x values know, we can solve for k and then solve for any x given y
We have
y = 37.4 = k (17)
Therefore k = (37.4/17) = 2.2
To find x given y = 13.2, use the second equation
x = y/k = 13.2 / 2.2 = 6
If you would like to know two equivalent ratios for 12/60, you can calculate this using the following steps:
12/60 = 12/2 / 60/2 = 6/30
6/30 = 6/2 / 30/2 = 3/15
3/15 = 3/3 / 15/3 = 1/5
The result would be 6/30 or 3/15 or 1/5.
