Answer:

<h3>\boxed{ \sf{ \bold{ \huge{ \boxed{ \frac{29}{5} }}}}}</h3>

Option B is the correct option.

Step-by-step explanation:

\sf{ \frac{3}{5}  =  \frac{x - 1}{8} }

Apply cross product property

⇒\sf{ 5(x - 1) = 3 \times 8}

Distribute 5 through the parentheses

⇒\sf{5x - 5 = 3 \times 8}

Multiply the numbers

⇒\sf{5x - 5 = 24}

Move 5 to right hand side and change it's sign

⇒\sf{5x = 24 + 5}

Add the numbers

⇒\sf{5x = 29}

Divide both sides of the equation by 5

⇒\sf{ \frac{5x}{5}  =  \frac{29}{5} }

⇒\sf{x =  \frac{29}{5} }

Hope I helped!

Best regards!!

What is the maximum value of P = 4x + 2y, given the constraints on x and y listed below?
Aliun [14]
What are the constraints?


When you graph the constraints the four points you can use are (0,0), (10,0), (0,2), and (6,2). 

(10,0) is the point that gives you the maximum value which is 40.

Suppose you have already been waiting for one hour for a taxi. what is the probability that one arrives within the next 10 minut
Alona [7]

The probability of one arrives within the next 10 minutes when he already been waiting for one jour for a taxi is,

 

P (X > 70 | X > 60) = P (X > 10) = 1 – P (X ≤ 10) = 1 – {1 – e ^ -((1 / 10) 10)} = e ^ -1

= 0.3679

 

The probability of one arrives within the next 10 minutes when he already been waiting for one hour for a taxi is 0.3679

Line JK passes through points J(–4, –5) and K(–6, 3). If the equation of the line is written in slope-intercept form, y = mx + b
4vir4ik [10]
The value of "b" is the y-intercept.

In order to figure out slope-intercept form you need 1 coordinate and the slope.
1) Find the slope, using the 2-point slope formula: "m= y2-y1 / x2-x1".
   ex. m= -5 - 3 / -4 - -6   (simplify)--->   m= -4

2) Fill in the blanks for point-slope formula: "y - y1 = m (x - x1)"
(choose one coordinate, it doesn't matter which one)
   ex. y - -5 = -4 (x - -4)

3) Then use basic algebra to simplify.
