Answer: x is 20

Step-by-step explanation:

This is ratio

a : c = b : x and d : unknown

a : c = 9 : 12 = 3 : 4 which is 9/12

b : x = 15 : x which is 15 / x

So the proportion will be :

3/4 = 15/x

So Cross multiplying

3x = 90

Divide both side by 3

x = 90/3

x = 20

ExtremeBDS [4]

<u>Answer</u>

3.5 hours.


<u>Explanation</u>

The first step is to calculate the constant of proportionality.

t ∝ 1/n

t = k/n   Where t = time, K= constant and n = number of people

t = k/n

k =tn

   = 5×7 = 35

The equation becomes;

t = 35/n

for n = 10,

t = 35/10

  t = 3.5 hours.

Translate the phrase into an expression: 11 more than one third of a number

1/3x+11.
1/3 of a number can be shown as 1/3x, since the number is not identified.

We can represent 11 more as +11.
This, our expression is 1/3x+11

Hope this helps!
