Answer:

2/5x=25

So what you do is because you want to get x by itself you wanna divide the fraction (2/5) over itself and then divide 25/(2/5) which will equal x.

X=25/(2/5)

then you plug in 25/(2/5) and it equals 62.5

or 62 1/2

X=62.5

Answer:

x = - $\frac{125}{2}$ = - 62.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

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

Multiply both sides by 5 to clear the fraction

2x = - 125 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = - $\frac{125}{2}$ = - 62.5

What is the area of a parallelogram with a base of 38 meters and a height of 12 meters?

8090 [49]

For this case we have by definition that the area of a parallelogram is given by:

$A = b * h$

Where:

b: It's the base

h: It's the height

According to the data we have:

$b = 38\ m\\h = 12 \ m$

Substituting in the formula:

$A = 38 * 12\\A = 456$

The area of the parallelogram is $A = 456 \ m ^ 2$

Answer:

$A = 456 \ m ^ 2$
