Answer:
11
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance that a is to b is b-a=17-2=15.
The line segment from a=2 to b=17 has length 15.
We need to know what is 3/5 of 15.
3/5 of 15 means what is 3/5 times 15?
(3/5)(15)=3(3)=9
So this means we are looking to make a line segment that is 9 units from 2 which is 2 to 11.
So 11 is 3/5 the way from a=2 to b=17.
Let's check from 2 to 11 that is a length of 9 and from 2 to 17 that is a length of 15.
Is 9/15 equal to 3/5?
Yes, 9/15 can be reduced to 3/5.
First you'll take 18/2 which equals 9. Then 30/2 which equals 15. Then you can divide both 9 and 15 by 3. So 9/3 equals 3 and 15/3 equals 5. So the answer is 3:5.
Answer:
$13.06
Step-by-step explanation:
There are five people so 65.30/5 = 13.06
-35 + 28x = 21
28x = 56
x = 2
