'of' means mltilply
jane=2/9 of ben
ben=3/4
jane=2/9 of 3/4
jane=2/9 times 3/4=(2*3)/(9*4)=6/36=1/6 miles

xeze [42]

Answer:

D. $x-\frac{5}{2}y = \frac{25}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$y = \frac{2}{5}x - 5$

Required

Determine its equivalent

<em>From the list of given options, the correct answer is</em>

$x - \frac{5}{2}y = \frac{25}{2}$

This is shown as follows;

$y = \frac{2}{5}x - 5$

Multiply both sides by $\frac{5}{2}$

$\frac{5}{2} * y = \frac{5}{2} * (\frac{2}{5}x - 5)$

Open Bracket

$\frac{5}{2} * y = \frac{5}{2} * \frac{2}{5}x - \frac{5}{2} *5$

$\frac{5}{2}y = x - \frac{25}{2}$

Subtract x from both sides

$\frac{5}{2}y - x = x -x - \frac{25}{2}$

$\frac{5}{2}y - x = - \frac{25}{2}$

Multiply both sides by -1

$-1 * \frac{5}{2}y - x * -1 = - \frac{25}{2} * -1$

$-\frac{5}{2}y + x = \frac{25}{2}$

Reorder

$x-\frac{5}{2}y = \frac{25}{2}$

<em>Hence, the correct option is D</em>

$x-\frac{5}{2}y = \frac{25}{2}$

Geometry: The base of a triangle is 12 in. Its height is (x + 6) in. Its area is no more

larisa [96]

Answer:

The area of a triangle= bh/2. Substitute

12(x+6)/2 ≤ 72

12(1/2x+3) ≤ 72

6x+36 ≤ 72

6x ≤ 72-36

6x ≤ 36 Divide both sides by 6

x ≤ 6

x|x ≤6 (read: x, where x is equal or smaller than 6)
