If it’s a negative equation is should be -20.8 otherwise it’s 4.2
Answer:
12/5 or 2⅖
Step-by-step explanation:
2x/3 = 8/5
2x = 3 × 8/5
2x = 24/5
x = 24/5 ÷ 2
x = 12/5
Or 2⅖
Answer: 29 cans.
Step-by-step explanation:
20 can survive 24 days with 15 cans.
If X is the number of days that a man can survive with one can of rations.
so X is in the units can/day
then we have that:
24/15*X = 20
X = 20*15/24 = 12.5
This means that a man can live 12.5 days with a can of food.
then, for 16 men and 36 days we have:
(36/C)*12.5 = 16
C = (36/16)*12.5 = 28.1215
And we can not have a 0.1215 of a can, so we should round it up to 29 cans.
Question:- Alana biked 12 miles in 48 minutes. What is Alana's speed in miles per minute?
Answer:-
Set up a proportion.
12/48 = 1/x
Cross multiply.
12*x = 12x
48*1 = 48
12x = 48
12x/12 = 48/12
x= 48/12
x= 4
Now, we have our final answer. x = 4
Final answer:- Alana bikes 4 miles per minute.
3x-13=2
move -13 to the other side
sign changes from -13 to +13
3x-13+13=2+13
3x=2+13
3x=15
divide both sides by 3 to get x by itself
3x/3=15/3
cross out 3 and 3, divide by 3 and then becomes 1*1*x=x
x=15/3
x=5
answer:
x=5
