Let C = the Chinese books.
Let E = the English language books.
C = 4/5 E
E - 300 = C - 180 Notice how you get this equation. You take 300 away from the English books and 180 from the Chinese and according to the question, you get an equal number of both. Put c = 4/5E into the second equation.
E - 300 = 4/5 E - 180 Add 300 to both sides.
E = 4/5 E - 180 + 300
E = 4/5 E + 120 Now subtract 4/5 E from both sidies.
E - 4/5 E = 120
1/5 E = 120 Now multiply by 5
E = 120 * 5
E = 600
So the number of books are
600 written in English
4/5 of 600 = 2400 /5 = 480 Chinese books.
English 600
Chinese 480
We develop the ratio between the number of milliliters present in 1 tablespoon and that is,
15 mL: 1 tablespoon
We let x be the number of millileter in 3 tbsp and it can be determined through the equation below.
x = 3 tbsp x (15 mL/ 1 tbsp) = 45 mL
Therefore, there are 45 mL in 3 tbsp.
Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:
y = 460 miles per hr
x = 500 miles per hr
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the planes be X any
Let their speeds be xmiles/hr and ymiles/hr respectively
x = y + 40 (assuming X is faster by 40miles/hr)
Distance travelled by X to meet Y = 0.75x
Distance travelled by Y to meet X = 0.75y
0.75x + 0.75y = 720 --------1
Put x = y + 40 in eqn 1
0.75(y+40) + 0.75y = 720
0.75y + 30 + 0.75y= 720
1.5y = 690
y = 460 miles per hr
x = 460 +40
= 500 miles per hr
Well I only know the first one
