Answer:
-1/6
Step-by-step explanation:
4-6x+5=0
-6x+5=-4
-6x=-4+5
-6x=1
6x=-1
x=-1/6
Answer:
I been trying to look for that answer for so long but can we help each other at least
You would set up a proportion. 3/8 = 6/x... cross multiply ( 3*x = 3x and 6*8 = 48) 3x = 48... divide both sides by 3 (3x/3 = x and 48/3 = 16)
So, she originally had 16 feet of ribbon.
Answer:
$350,000
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's define:
- s: amount of short-range missiles produced
- m: amount of medium-range missiles produced
- l: amount of long-range missiles produced
From the total production and the ratios we can write the following equations:
s + m + l = 3000
s/m = 3/3 = 1 = m/s
s/l = 3/4 or l/s = 4/3
Dividing the first equation by s, we get:
s/s + m/s + l/s = 3000/s
1 + 1 + 4/3 = 3000/s
10/3 = 3000/s
s = 3000*3/10 = 900
m = 900
l = 4/3*900 = 1200
From the money that the countries plans to use and each missile cost, we can write the following equation:
200,000*s + 300,000*m + cost*l = 870,000,000
Replacing with previous result:
200,000*900 + 300,000*900 + cost*1200 = 870,000,000
cost = (870,000,000 - 200,000*900 - 300,000*900)/1200 = 350,000
You have to multiply and add!
