Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the missing number

$8\frac{11}{15} = 7\frac{x}{15}$

Convert both fractions to improper fractions

$\frac{131}{15} = \frac{105 + x}{15}$

Cross multiply

$15(105 + x) = 15(131)$

$1,575 + 15x = 1,965$

Subtract both sides by 1,575

$15x = 1,965 - 1,575$

$15x = 390$

Divide both sides by 15

$x = \frac{390}{15}$

x = 26

Line r is twice line m. i.e. r = 2s which means that they are linearly dependent.

Therefore there are infinitely many solution to the given set of equations.

What number adds up to 15 and multiplies 9?

serious [3.7K]

I'm not quite sure what this is specifically asking for, but I think the answer is 3.

3 can be added to itself 5 times to get 15 and multiplied by itself to get 9.

Hope this helps!
