Answer:
5/6
Step-by-step explanation:
2 1/2 -> 5/2
5/2 divided by 3, which is 0.83333333333
0.83333333333 as a simplied fraction is 5/6
There are 12 inches in one foot. 120 x 12 = 1,440 inches. The correct ratio to be placed is the 5th one (aka 12 inches over 1 foot).
-4 (5y + 5) = -120
multiply the bracket by -4
(-4)(5y)=-20y
(-4)(5)=-20
-20y-20=-120
move -20 to +20
-20y-20+20=-120+20
-20y=-120+20
-20y=-100
divide both sides by -20 to get y by itself
-20y/-20=-100/-20
Answer: y=5
