If x+y/y =13, what is the value of y/x?

2 answers:

6 0

Okay, to solve this we can use cross multiplication:
x+y = 13y
12y = x
Knowing this, we can safely say that
y/x = y/12y
y/12y = 1/12
y/x = 1/12

$\dfrac{x+y}{y}=13\\\\\dfrac{x}{y}+\dfrac{y}{y}=13\\\\\dfrac{x}{y}+1=13\ \ \ |-1\\\\\dfrac{x}{y}=12\to\dfrac{y}{x}=\dfrac{1}{12}$

gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

A. yes

Step-by-step explanation:

The contestant has a 60% chance of winning because they could either spin 1, 3, or 5.

However, unless there's another player who can only spin evens, it's not fair, because the contestant who spins odds has a 60% chance, while this player will only have a 40% chance.

Bart company charges a lower rate. It is lower by rate $ 0.5 per hour

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Given that Ace bike rentals rents bikes for $28 per day. Renters can keep the bike for 8 hours

Also given that Bart's bikes rents bikes for $30 per day. Renters can keep the bike for 10 hours

To find: company that charges lower rate

Let us find the hourly rate of Ace and Bart

$\text {hourly rate }=\frac{\text { Rental price }}{\text { total time in a day }}$

<em><u>Hourly rate of Ace company:</u></em>

Rental price = $28

total time in a day 8 hours

$\text {hourly rate }=\frac{28}{8}=3.5$

So the hourly rate of Ace company is $ 3.5 per hour

<em><u>Hourly rate of Bart company:</u></em>

Rental price = $ 30

total time in a day 10 hours

$\text {hourly rate }=\frac{30}{10}=3$

So the hourly rate of Bart company is $ 3 per hour

<em><u>Comparing hourly rate of both companies</u></em>

Ace company is $ 3.5 per hour

Bart company is $ 3 per hour

Bart company < Ace company

3 < 3.5

Thus bart company charges a lower rate

<h3><em><u>How much lower?</u></em></h3>

hourly rate of Ace company - hourly rate of Bart company = 3.5 - 3 = 0.5

So, it is lower by rate $0.5 per hour

ad+b

give me brilliant please

Step-by-step explanation:

c−d

Step 1: Multiply both sides by c-d.

ac−ad=b

Step 2: Add ad to both sides.

ac−ad+ad=b+ad

ac=ad+b

Step 3: Divide both sides by a.

Solve the equation. Round to the nearest hundredth. Show work.

Burka [1]

Answer:

$x=-0.75$

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is

$4^{-5x-7}=6^{2x-1}$

We take logarithm of both sides to base 10.

$\log(4^{-5x-7})=\log(6^{2x-1})$

$(-5x-7)\log(4)=(2x-1)\log(6)$

We expand the brackets to get;

$-5x\log(4)-7\log(4)=2x\log(6)-\log(6)$

Group similar terms;

$-7\log(4)+\log(6)=2x\log(6)+5x\log(4)$

$-7\log(4)+\log(6)=(2\log(6)+5\log(4))x$

$\frac{-7\log(4)+\log(6)}{(2\log(6)+5\log(4))}=x$

$x=-0.752478$

To the nearest hundredth.

$x=-0.75$
