JulijaS [17]

The algebraic expression for the word phrase "the product of a number and 3" as a variable expression is 3z

<h3>How to write an algebraic expression for the word phrase "the product of a number and 3" as a variable expression?</h3>

The word phrase is given as:

"the product of a number and 3"

Represent the number with z

So, the word phrase can be rewritten as:

"the product of a number z and 3"

The product of a number z and 3 is represented as:

z * 3

When evaluated,, the expression becomes

z * 3 = 3z

Hence, the algebraic expression for the word phrase "the product of a number and 3" as a variable expression is 3z

The ratio of the length to the width of a rectangle is 5:4. The length of the rectangle is 60 inches. What is the width?
Firlakuza [10]

\huge\boxed{\text{48 inches}}

We know that \frac{\text{length}}{\text{width}} = \frac{60}{\text{width}} = \frac{5}{4}.

Solve using cross multiplication of the last two fractions. I will use w to represent the width of the rectangle. 60*4=w*5

Multiply. 240=5w

Divide both sides of the equation by 5. \boxed{48}=w

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}
