Answer:
y=40
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for Direct Variation is y=kx or k=y/x. In this case I would use k=y/x. If you're y is 8 and x is 3, this means that K=8/3. Using this, we know that X=15. We have to find a Y value so that the fraction with an x of 15 simplified is 8/3. To do this you would write 8/3 and y/15. Now cross multiply to get 3y=120. Divide by 3 to get y=40.

<span>current ratio: 4 apple trees for every 3 pear trees.
wants: 2 avocado trees for every 5 pear trees in the orchard.
Sandy is planting 18 avocado trees
so 2 avocado trees for every 5 pear trees
=1 avocado trees for every 2.5 pear trees
therefore if we have 18 avocado trees
18 x 2.5 = 45 pear trees
4 apple trees for every 3 pear trees
4/3
= 1.333 apple trees for every 1 pear tree
therefore if we have 45 avocado trees
45 x 1.333 = 60 apple trees
therefore ratio of avocado to apple trees = 18 : 60
18 : 60
= 9 : 30
= 3 : 10</span>
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Hello,
I am going to start with to change to a improper fraction:
1. I will convert 6 and 9/10 into a improper fraction:

2. Now that I have converted the mixed fraction into a improper I can multiply the numerator and the denominator.

3. Now I can simplify this value and convert it into a mixed fraction

After further simplifying I can convert this into an mixed number
