Answer:
x=2
Step-by-step explanation:
Here what we need is that the ratios be equal, which is:
x:(5/2) = 8:10 or, what is the same:
x/(5/2) = 8/10
Lets pick the left term x/(5/2) and multiply both numerator and denominator by 2 to eliminate the fraction on the denominator:
2x/2(5/2) = 2x/5
Now, we would like to make a 10 appear on the denominator. As we already have a five we need to multiply numerator and denominator by the num that, multiplied by 5 gives as 10, this is 2:
2(2x)/2(5) = 4x / 10
So, we transformed x/(5/2) in 4x/10, and both are the same, so we can replace it on our first equation:
4x/10 = 8/10
As both denominators are equal, we can concentrate only in numerators:
4x = 8
Dividing both sides by 4:
x = 2
So, for x=2 both ratios are equivalents.
6 is the answer I believe
Answer:
y=1/2x-10
Step-by-step explanation:
y=1/2x+b
-8=1/2(4)+b
-8=2+b
-10=b
y=1/2x-10
Answer:
y= 3/2x + 1
Step-by-step explanation:
slope intercept form is y=mx+b. the m is the slope and the b is the y intercept. the y intercept is 1, where it crosses the y axis. the slope is 3/2 because from the y intercept which is 1, you go up 3 and over 2 right.
The answer is C hope this helps
