Answer:
19.2
Step-by-step explanation:
The first way is to cross multiply
4/5 = 28/x
4x = 5*28
4x = 140
4x/4 = 140/4
x = 35 which is the answer
=============================================
The second method is to note the denominators 4 and 28, and to ask yourself "what times 4 gets me 28?". The answer being 7, so 7*4 = 28. If you multiply top and bottom of the fraction 4/5 by 7, then you end up with 7*4 = 28 up top and 7*5 = 35 down below. This is another way of seeing how 4/5 = 28/35
Either way, the answer is x = 35
Hey there!!
They're called Inverse operation. Such as *multiplication and division* and *addition and subtraction*
Hope this helps. c:
x+y=120_______1
x=4*y_________2
x=4y
substitute 4y for x in equation 1
`4y+y=120
5y=120
eliminate the coefficient of y
y=120/5
y=24
now,input 24 for y in equation 2
`x=4y
x=4*24
x=96
thus, the numbers are
96 and 24
1:60 because there is 60 seconds in 1 minute, so you'd have 70/x=1/60 and then you would cross multiply
