Answer:
x=24
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi there!
We are given the following proportion:

And we want to solve for x.
First, let's reduce
, as reducing fractions typically makes the process easier
is the same as 
So:

We can't do anything to
, but that's okay.
Now we can cross multiply, as this is a proportion
Multiply x-9 by 1 and 3 by 5
1(x-9)=3(5)
Multiply
x-9=15
Now this is an equation
Our goal is to isolate x on one side
So let's add 9 to both sides to remove it from the left side
x-9=15
+9 +9
_________
x=24

Odd number on a fair die:
50%, as 1,3,5 are all odd and there are 6 sides on a die
tails: 50% as 2 sides.
But if you are asking together: for each possible side on the die, there is a possibility of heads or tails
1: H T
2: H T
3: H T
4: H T
5: H T
6: H T
so 12 possibilities.
to roll an odd number and have a coin land on tails
1: T
3: T
5: T
3 different possibilities satisfy that
so then the answer becomes: 3/12
so 25%
