Answer:

<u>The answer is m = 5</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve the proportional equation, this way:

3/m-2 = 7/m+2

3 * (m + 2) = 7 * (m - 2) [Lowest common denominator (m + 2) * (m - 2)]

3m + 6 = 7m - 14

-4m = -14 - 6 (Like terms)

-4m = -20

m = -20/-4

m = 5

<u>The answer is m = 5</u>

Ray delivered 3/8 of the newspapers on his route in the first hour and 4/5 of the rest in the second hour what fraction of the n

Temka [501]

Answer:

$\frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total number of Newspapers be x

Number of newspapers delivered in first hour of his route= $\frac{3}{8}$ of x

Total number of newspapers delivered in first hour= $\frac{3}{8}$ x

Number of newspapers left= x- $\frac{3x}{8}$

Number of newspapers left= $\frac{8x-3x}{8}$

Number of newspapers left= $\frac{5x}{8}$

Number of newspapers delivered in second hour=4/5 of $\frac{5x}{8}$

Number of newspapers delivered in second hour= $\frac{x}{2}$

Fraction of newspapers delivered in second hour is= $\frac{1}{2}$

Hence, the correct answer is $\frac{1}{2}$
