Solve the following proportion for v. <br>8/5 = v/6 <br>Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

$v=\frac{48}{5}=9\frac{3}{5} \\$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{8}{5}=\frac{v}{6}$

Swap sides:

$\frac{v}{6}=\frac{8}{5}$

Multiply to both sides by 6:

$\frac{v}{6}\cdot6=\frac{8}{5}\cdot6$

Group like terms:

$\frac{1}{6}\cdot6v=\frac{8}{5}\cdot6$

Simplify the fraction:

$v=\frac{8}{5}\cdot6$

Multiply the fractions

$v=\frac{8\cdot6}{5}$

Simplify the arithmetic:

$v=\frac{48}{5}$

Please help :) If you know anything about combining equations can you help me :)

julsineya [31]

Answer:

-5x - 8y = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

Whenever we two equations, we are essentially just adding the left sides up and then the right sides up. Here, let's write these into one whole big equation:

(4x - 4y) + (-9x - 4y) = -2 + (-3)

Taking the parentheses out, we have:

4x - 4y - 9x - 4y = -2 - 3

Combine like terms:

4x - 9x - 4y - 4y = -5

-5x - 8y = -5

Hope this helps!
