Answer:
x=4
Step-by-step explanation:
2/3 x + 5/6 = x - 1/2
Multiply each side by 6 to clear the fractions
6(2/3 x + 5/6) = 6(x - 1/2)
Distribute
4x +5 = 6x-3
Subtract 4x from each side
4x+5 -4x = 6x-3-4x
5 = 2x-3
Add 3 to each side
5+3= 2x-3+3
8 =2x
Divide by 2
8/2 =2x/2
4 =x
Well, what's the diffrence from 5/4 to 3/8?

so, if we take 5/4 to be the 100%, what is 7/8 off of it in percentage anyway?
Answer:
2 people
Step-by-step explanation:
8 have both that means that of the 11 people that have cats 3 have only cats and of the 13 that have dogs 5 only have dogs therefore 2 people don't have four-legged animals at home
If we translate the facts into location equations, xM=Mona's location, xL=Lina's location, then we get:
xM(t) = 300t
xL(t) = v*t - 1000
xM(10)=xL(10)
Where v is Lina's speed we have to find.
Plugging them all together gives:
300*10 = 10v - 1000
Which can be solved:
3000 + 1000 = 10v
4000 = 10v
v=400
Lina should skate at 400 feet per minute!
