Answer:

8/13

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x

if five times a number added to 4 is divided by the number plus 6 the result is nine halves

  • five times the number = 5x
  • five times a number added to 4 = 5x+4
  • five times a number added to 4 is divided by the number = (5x+4)/x
  • five times a number added to 4 is divided by the number plus 6 = (5x+4)/x  + 6
  • nive halves = 9*(1/2)

five times a number added to 4 is divided by the number plus 6 the result is nine halves

(5x+4)/x  + 6 = 9(1/2)

=>(5x+4)/x  + 6 -6 = 9(1/2) -6 = 9/2-6 = (9-6*2)/2 = -3/2

=>(5x+4)= -3/2 *x= -3x/2

=>2(5x+4) = -3x

=> 10x +8 = -3x

=> 10x+3x = 8

=> 13x = 8

=> x = 8/13

Thus, the number is 8/13

You can text 44 words in 1 minute. Write a proportion to help you find
Natalka [10]

Answer:

176 words

Step-by-step explanation:

1) well we want to find the amount of words we'd be able to type in 4 minutes. so, what i did was:

<u>44 words</u> = <u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u>x</u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u>

1 minutes = 4 minutes

2) now look at how i set up the proportion, notice how i left a variable of x for the value i didn't know.

3) we also know that 1 times 4 is 4, so it'd also make sense to also multiply the numerator by 4 too!!

4) multiplying 44 by 4 would get us our answer which is 176

im not the best at math but i this explanation helped <33

Luigi uses 39 cups of flour for every 6 pizzas he makes.Complete the table using equivalent ratios. Pizzas
zlopas [31]

Answer:

Part 1) The number of cups of flour needed to make 4 pizzas is 26

Part 2) The number of pizzas Luigi can make with 13 cups of flour is 2

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

Luigi uses 39 cups of flour for every 6 pizzas he makes

Let

y ----> the number of cups of flour used

x ---> the number of pizzas he makes

In this problem

The relationship between the variables x, and y, represent a proportional variation

we have the ordered pair (6,39)

so

\frac{y}{x}=\frac{39}{6}

Part 1) Find out the number of cups of flour needed to make 4 pizzas

using a proportion

\frac{y}{4}\ \frac{cups\ of\ flour}{pizzas}=\frac{39}{6}\ \frac{cups\ of\ flour}{pizzas}

Solve for y

y=\frac{39}{6}(4)

y=26\ cups\ of\ flour

Part 2) Find out the number of pizzas Luigi can make with 13 cups of flour

using a proportion

\frac{13}{x}\ \frac{cups\ of\ flour}{pizzas}=\frac{39}{6}\ \frac{cups\ of\ flour}{pizzas}

Solve for x

x=13(6)/39

x=2\ pizzas
