Answer:

5:7

Step-by-step explanation:

One way is to

divide both terms by the greatest common factor (GCF), 3:

15 ÷ 3 = 5

21 ÷ 3 = 7

So it would be 5:7.

Another way is to simplify the numbers, so

15 simplified is 5

21 simplified is 7

So it would be 5:7.

Super sorry but couldn't find another one :C.

A = (pi) * r*2
(pi) = 3.14
r = d/2.....r = 17/2 or 8.5

A = 3.14 * 8.5^2
A = 3.14 * 72.25
A = 226.86 rounds to 226.9 m^2 <==

Which equations have the same value as 3/5 (30x-15)=72 select 3

const2013 [10]

Answer:

x=4.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation $\frac{3}{5}(30x-15)=72$ , we simplify as:

$\frac{3}{5}(30x-15)=72\\\\18x-9=72$

#We further simplify as multiples of 9(divide by 9 to solve for x):

$18x-9=72\\\\2x-1=8\\\\2x=9\\\\x=4.5$

Hence, from our simplification the equation has the same value as x=4.5
