<span>This problem is an
example of ratio and proportion. A ratio is a comparison between two different
things. You are given the equivalent distance of a 1 2/5
kilometers to 1 mile. Also you are given 4 miles. You are required to find the distance
in kilometers of 4 miles. The solution of this problem is,</span>
1 2/5
kilometers /1 mile = distance/ 4 miles
distance = (4
miles) (1 2/5 kilometers /1 mile)
<u>distance =
28/5 or 5.6 kilometers</u>
<u>There are 5.6
kilometers in 4 miles.</u>
5x+3=3x+7
<em></em>-3 = -3
2x+3=7
-3= -3
2x=4
x=2
Answer:
The equation would be 2,250 - 120<em>m</em>
Answer:
a) 72
b) $259.2
Step-by-step explanation:
A- The bus travels 40 miles on 8 gallons of gasoline. The bus is traveling 360 miles in total.
360/40= 9
9*8= 72
B- $3.60 per gallon and 72 gallons in total.
3.60*72=259.2
$259.2
Since they are congruent, cpctc,
just set the congruent parts equal to each other.
so 2x-20=30
and
15=3y-9
