Answer:
x=24
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Multiply all terms by the same value to eliminate fraction denominators
x/3=8
3(x/3)=8(3)
2. Cancel multipled terms that are in the same denminator
3(x/3)=8(3)
x=3(8)
3. Multiply the numbers
x=3(8)
x=24
Given:
total = 750
ratio = 7 : 8
We need to get the ratio of the number to its total
7 + 8 = 15 ; 7/15 and 8/15 is the ratio of the number to its total.
We multiply these ratio to the total of 750
7/15 * 750 = 350
8/15 * 750 = 400
7:8 is equal to 350:400

Answer:
6/5 or 1.2, they're the same value
Step-by-step explanation:
When it says "rate of change", it's really just asking for the slope. If you don't know what the slope is, essentially how much the y-value increases by whenever x increases by 1. This can be formally defined using the equation: 
which is essentially 
. The subtraction is finding the difference between the two numbers to see how much it's changed by. Btw the order doesn't matter, I could plug in (-3, -2) as (x2, y2) or I could plug it in as (x1, y1) as long as I make sure to input it in correctly. In this example I'll just say (-3, -2) = (x1, y1) and (2, 4) = (x2, y2). Plugging these values into the equation gives you: 
that's the rate of change
