Why are the solutions to the proportions 40/80 = to x/10 and x/40= 10/8 the same

Mathematics

Daniel [21]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

In 2 expression the value of x  is different

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

40/80 = to x/10 and x/40= 10/8

<u>To find the value of 40/80 = to x/10</u>

40/80 = x/10

x = (40*10)/80

x = 5

<u>To find the value of x/40= 10/8</u>

x/40 = 10/8

x = (40*10)/8

x = 50

From the given results we get the value of x is different.

What are the coordinates of the vertex of the parabola y=x^2+2x-1
kozerog [31]
Y = x^2 + 2x - 1 = x^2 + 2x + 1 - 1 - 1 = (x + 1)^2 - 2
The vertex of a parabola given by y = a(x - h)^2 + k is (h, k).

Therefore, the vertex of y =  (x + 1)^2 - 2 is (-1, -2)

Order the numbers from least to greatest. 3 63/80 , 3 1/5 , 3 11/20
gregori [183]

Let's compare apples to apples and oranges to oranges: convert each given proper fraction into its decimal counterpart:

3 63/80 => 3 .788 approx.

3 1/5 => 3.2

3 11/20 => 3.55

It's now an easy matter to arrange these numbers from least to greatest:

3.2, 3.55, 3.79, or

3 1/5, 3 11/20, 3 63/80

I need help.. 
Debora [2.8K]
This is exactly like the one with the 'n's that you posted yesterday.
I guess you didn't get enough help on that one to understand it.

<span><u>7k/8 - 3/4 - 5k/16 = 3/8</u>

3/4 is the same as 6/8.
Add it to each side of the equation:

7k/8         - 5k/16 = 9/8

Multiply each side by 16 :

14k - 5k = 18

Add up the 'k's on the left side:

9k = 18

From this point, you can proceed directly to the numerical value of 'k'
if you need it.<u />

In your question, you said you need help, and I showed you how to
strip the problem down so that the only thing left is ' k = something '.
Giving you the answer is no help.  Nobody actually needs the answer.

rjkz [21]

Answer:

I don't know what happened to your profile picture... I don't know if mods can remove/change pfps, but if so, then that could be the case -- especially if your pfp challenged Brainly's rules and community guidelines. Then again, it could have just been you...
