Question isnt well formatted :
Answer:
1 : 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the question :
3x = 1/2y
3x = y/2
Multiply both sides by 2
3x * 2 = y/2 * 2
6x = y
This can be interpreted as :
y = 6 times the value of x
x = y/6
x : y
1 : 6
Answer:
6(x-8)=5-2x
Step-by-step explanation:
let the number be x
so we have six times the difference between a number and 8
that is 6(x-8).
is equal to 5 less than twice the number ..we have
=5-2x.
therefore, our answer becomes:
6(x-8)=5-2x
notice, that, pure juice is 100% juice, dohhh, thus 100/100 = 1.00
50% is 50/100 or 0.50 in decimal format
so..... whatever those two quantities amount to, that is, the 50% and pure juice, or (4)(0.50) + (x)(1.00)
they will equal the mixture desired 60% juice, or 0.60, namely (4+x)(0.60)
thus (4)(0.50) + (x)(1.00) = (4+x)(0.60)
solve for "x"
Apparently there's no solution?? i tried solving it, and i also used a special calculator, but no solution came up
