Answer:

\large\boxed{x=-\dfrac{69}{2}\to x=-34\dfrac{1}{2}\to x=-34.5}

Step-by-step explanation:

\dfrac{2}{3}x-\dfrac{3}{4}=5+\dfrac{5}{6}x\qquad\text{multiply both sides by LCD = 12}\\\\12\!\!\!\!\!\diagup^4\cdot\dfrac{2}{3\!\!\!\!\diagup_1}x-12\!\!\!\!\!\diagup^3\cdot\dfrac{3}{4\!\!\!\diagup_1}=(12)(5)+12\!\!\!\!\!\diagup^2\cdot\dfrac{5}{6\!\!\!\diagup_1}x\\\\(4)(2x)-(3)(3)=60+(2)(5x)\\\\8x-9=60+10x\qquad\text{add 9 to both sides}\\\\8x-9+9=60+9+10x\\\\8x=69+10x\qquad\text{subtract}\ 10x\ \text{from both sides}\\\\8x-10x=69+10x-10x\\\\-2x=69\qquad\text{divide both sides by (-2)}\\\\x=-\dfrac{69}{2}

The recipe for Perfect Purple Water says, "Mix 8 ml of blue water with 3 ml of red water." Jada mixes 24 ml of blue water with 9
cluponka [151]

Answer:Jada will get same shade as Perfect Purple Water

Step-by-step explanation:

STEP 1

To get the right  recipe for Perfect purple water, every new mixture must have an equivalent ratio as the ideal mixture

The ideal mixture is given as

8ml  blue water and 3 ml red water.

Step 2

Andre mixes 16ml blue water with 9ml red water

\frac{8ml}{3ml} is not equivalent to \frac{16ml}{9ml}

Because dividing Andre's mixture  by a common value  will  not give  the equivalent ratio of the ideal recipe

\frac{16ml}{9ml}  \frac{/}{/}  \frac{3}{3} =\frac{5.3ml}{3ml}  

Jada mixes 24ml blue water with 9ml red water

\frac{8ml}{3ml} is equivalent to \frac{24ml}{9ml}

Because dividing Jada's mixture  by a common value  gives the equivalent ratio of the ideal recipe

\frac{24ml}{9ml}  \frac{/}{/}  \frac{3}{3} =\frac{8ml}{3ml}  

This shows that Jada got the right recipe and will get  same shade as Perfect Purple Water but in a higher quantity, 3 times the right recipe for  Perfect Purple Water

Eric plans to rent a car for a day from Easy Car Rental. He has a coupon for 25% off the daily base rate of $40. He will also ha
Volgvan
In this situation, there are 2 separate terms (parts of the story).  The first part is the information about the coupon that applies to the daily rate of $40.  You will represent this as 0.75 (for the 75% that you will be paying) x 40.  (The other part of this story is that you are paying $0.15 per mile which is represented as 0.15m.  You need to put these together to get 0.75(40) + 0.15m.  The 0.25 times 40 can be simplified to say 30, so write it as $30 + $0.15m.
