K/13 = 0.6/0.5 what does that equal

photoshop1234 [79]

$\frac{k}{13}$ = $\frac{0.6}{0.5}$ equals k = 15.6

First, simplify $\frac{0.6}{0.5}$ to 1.2. Your problem should look like: $\frac{k}{13}$ = 1.2
Second, multiply both sides by 13. Your problem should look like: k = 15.6, which is the answer.

The isosceles triangle has a perimeter of 7.5 m. Which equation can be used to find the value of x if the shortest side, y, meas

kicyunya [14]

An isosceles triangle has 2 sides of the same length and one side that's not the same length.

So it says the shortest side, y, is 2.1m, so that means it's the side that is not the same length as the other two sides.

But the other two sides will be the same length. Let's make those 2 sides x.

The equation would be
x + x + 2.1 = 7.5

And with that you can find x.
