Write a proportion using an unknown value x and the ratio 5:6. Then solve it.

1 answer:

4 0

5/6 = x/12
6 × 2 equals 12
So use 2 and multiple it by 5 and you get 10
so the proportion would be
5/6 = x/12 6 × 2 = 12 5 × 2 = 10 = 10/12x

slega [8]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The number of men receiving degrees (in thousands)

y = 3.8x + 441

The number of women receiving degrees (in thousands)

y = 14.4x + 311

y = 3.8x + 441

Solving the above equations simultaneously,

3.8x + 441 = 14.4x + 311

10.6x = 130

x = 12.24

Inputting the value of x into the initial equation to find y,

y = 3.8(12.26) + 441

= 487.6

Therefore, the point (12.26 , 487.6) will be the solution of our given equations.

Anestetic [448]

Option A. зу + 12 is the right answer

Step-by-step explanation:

The substitution method consists of finding the value of a variable from one equation and then putting it into another equation to find the value of other variable.

Given equations are:

$2x+y=8\\-x-3y=-12$

We have to isolate x in the 2nd equation

$-x-3y=-12$

Multiplying equation by -1

$x+3y=12$

Subtracting 3y from both sides

$x+3y-3y=12+3y\\x=12+3y$

Hence,

Option A. зу + 12 is the right answer
