I hope you mean 1/5 when you say 1 5. If that's what you mean, then both, Joshua and Melanie, are correct because, both of their equations are the same.
Joshua's - <span>8 ÷ 1/5 = 40 (Since we can divide a number by fraction, we use this rule: keep, change flip. When we use that Joshua's equation turns into 8 * 5/1 = 8*5 = 40, same as Melanie's.)</span>
(2/3) / 3 = 1/x...2/3 to 3 lawns = 1 to x lawns
cross multiply
(2/3)(x) = (3)(1)
2/3x = 3
x = 3 * 3/2
x = 9/2 or 4 1/2 lawns can be cut with a full tank of gas
I believe the answer is:
1 13889/25000
Give me a min if this one is wrong. "Thank" if i got it right
Answer:
The answer is A, (1,2).
Step-by-step explanation:
Hope this helps!
8x-4(x+1) = 0
x =1
y = 1 + 1
y = 2
(x,y) = (1,2)
2 = 1 + 1
8 x 1 - 4 x 2 = 0
Simplify
2 = 2
0 = 0
Solution = (1 , 2)
