5/x = 4/8

Simplify the fraction 4/8

Divide both the numerator and denominator by 4 to get 1/2

5/x = 1/2

Now, we cross multiply: a/b = c/d ⇒ ad = bc

5/x = 1/2
1(x) = 5(2)
x = 10

Your final answer is D. 10.

Cross-multiply for a result of:

40=4x

Divide by 4 to see that x=10. D is the correct answer.

Gina's literacy bucket weighs 6 pounds. Her novel weighs 1 4/6 pounds, and her chrome book weighs 2 1/6 how much would her bucke

Paraphin [41]

Answer:

$2\frac{1}{6}$ pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Gina's literacy bucket weighs 6 pounds. Her novel weighs 1 4/6 pounds, and her chrome book weighs 2 1/6.

To find weight of bucket after taking out the two items, we will subtract weight of each item from 6 pounds as:

$\text{Weight of bucket}=6-1\frac{4}{6}-2\frac{1}{6}$

Let us convert mixed fractions into improper fractions as:

$1\frac{4}{6}=\frac{6\cdot 1+4}{6}=\frac{10}{6}\\\\2\frac{1}{6}=\frac{6\cdot 2+1}{6}=\frac{12+1}{6}=\frac{13}{6}$

$\text{Weight of bucket}=6-\frac{10}{6}-\frac{13}{6}$

$\text{Weight of bucket}=\frac{6\cdot 6}{6}-\frac{10}{6}-\frac{13}{6}$

$\text{Weight of bucket}=\frac{36}{6}-\frac{10}{6}-\frac{13}{6}$

Combine numerators:

$\text{Weight of bucket}=\frac{36-10-13}{6}$

$\text{Weight of bucket}=\frac{13}{6}$

$\text{Weight of bucket}=2\frac{1}{6}$

Therefore, the weight of the bucket is $2\frac{1}{6}$ pounds.

Answer:

x-intercept: -14/9

y-intercept: 7

Step-by-step explanation:

This is one of the easiest forms for finding intercepts. To find the x-intercept, set y=0 and divide both sides by the coefficient of x.

-9x = 14 . . . . . set y=0

x = -14/9 . . . . divide by -9

To find the y-intercept, set x=0 and divide both sides by the coefficient of y.

2y = 14 . . . . set x=0

y = 7 . . . . . . divide by 2

The x-intercept is -14/9; the y-intercept is 7.
