Answer:
10:3
Step-by-step explanation:
Make 2 1/2 an improper fraction, you will get 5/2. You dont have to do anything to the 3/4.
For you to find the ratio of an fraction, you have to take the numerator but the denominator has to be the same.
So make 5/2 to a 10/4.
Take the numerator 10 & 3.
Your answer will be 10:3
No problem.
First lets write out the equation:
-8x + 2x - 16 < -5x + 7x
Lets collect the x values
-6x - 16 < 2x
-8x - 16 < 0 (subtract both sides by 2x to get all the x's on one side)
-8x < 16 ( add both sides by 16 to get all the x's alone)
x < -2 ( divide both sides by -8 to get what just x is)
So x < -2
