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.

Which expression is equivalent to ^
mash [69]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

lets break down 120 to see what it is divisible by and see if any of those numbers are perfect squares.

120/2=60

120/3=40

120/4=30

we can stop there because 4 is a perfect square and 30 can not be reduced any further to produce a perfect square.

do not forget there is only one x so it must stay in side the  radical.

your answer is 2sqrt(30x)

To save money, you put $200 in your bank account each week. After saving for 4 weeks, you have $1,700$ dollars in your account.
kozerog [31]
Let's say the savings in your account are given by $V, the number of weeks by n and the starting balance by $x:
V = x + 200n

Now if after saving for 4 weeks you have $1700 in your account, then:
1700 = x + 200*4
1700 = x + 800
x = 900, thus your starting balance is $900

Using this information we can now write up the general equation for the savings at the end of each week:
V = 900 + 200n
