Answer:

x = 4/7

Step-by-step explanation:

5/3 x = 20/21

Multiply by 3/5 on each side to isolate x

3/5 *5/3 x = 20/21 * 3/5

x = 20/21 * 3/5

Rewriting the right hand side

x = 20/5 * 3/21

x =4 * 1/7

x = 4/7

You could write it as:
\frac{5x}{3} = \frac{20}{21 }
Cross multiply
105x = 60
divide 105 on both sides
Answer:
x = \frac{60}{105}
x = \frac{4}{7}

In 150 spins, about how often do you expect to land on a number less than 6? Spinner is 1-8. Theoretical probability. Is the ans
AveGali [126]
I don't know.  I'll have to figure it out.

Probability = 

       (number of successful possible results) / (total possible results) .

Total possible results for the spinner . . . 8
Successful ones (getting a  1, 2, 3, 4, or 5) . . . 5

Theoretical probability  =  5/8 .

So you expect (5/8 of 150) spins to be successful.

         (5/8 times 150)  =  93.75

Yes ! 
93  or  94  is a good answer.

The distance on a bike path between Westfield and Southborough is 46 mi. Tracey leaves Westfield heading to Southborough cycling
ipn [44]

Answer: 2 hr.

Explanation: Think back to rate of change. <em>d</em> = <em>rt</em>, <em>r</em> = <em>d/t</em>, <em>t</em> = <em>d/r</em>. In this case, we will be using <em>d</em> = <em>rt</em>. Mph would be <em>r</em>, rate, so you would categorize 15 mph and 8 mph under rate. <em>t</em> should represent the time each cyclist traveled. Tracey's and Emma's distance, <em>d</em>, would be the same as their mph, hence Tracey's being 15<em>t</em> and Emma's would be 8<em>t</em>. When you add Tracey's distance plus Emma's distance, you end up with 46 mi. Now, you need to combine like terms, which should look like 15<em>t</em> + 8<em>t </em> = 46. Add 15 and 8 to get 23, so it should be 23<em>t</em> = 46 now. Then, divide both sides of the equation by 23 and now you should have your answer, <em>t</em> = 2 hr.

It was reported that uninsured drivers caused 1 in 20 accidents. About 682,494 car crashes were reported. About how many of thes
vivado [14]
To solve the problem you have to take 682,494 and divide it be 20 because 1 in every 20 accidents are caused by that. So, if you divide that you will see what 1 in every 20 is so the equation would be 682,494 div by 20 which will give you 34,124.

which equation represents the line that passes through the point (-2,2) and is parallel to y=1/2x + 8
Nataliya [291]
The first thing is the slope
y = 1/2 x + b is the new line. Now we must solve for b
2 = 1/2 (-2) + b
2 = -1 + b
3 = b
The new line is 
y = 1/2 x +3
