A) x = 0.296
B) x= 15
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1:
(2/3) : x :: 4.5 :2
By using expansion method,
(2/3) × 2 = 4.5 x
x= (2/3) × 2 / 4.5
x = 0.296
Step 2:
(2/3) : (1/5) :: 50 :x
By using expansion method,
(2/3) x = (1/5) × 50
x= (1/5) × 50 / (2/3)
x = 15
Cost of the admission tickets: 11.75x
Cost of the box lunch: 5x
Expressions to find the total cost = (1) ....... 11.75x + 5x
That is equivalent to: (2) .......... (11.75 + 5)x = 16.75x.
Now calculate the cost for x = 5 using both expressions:
1) 11.75(5) + 5(5) = 58.75 + 25 = 83.75
2) 16.75(5) = 83.75
Of course you got the same result with both expressions.
Answer: No the real answer is 35.10585
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer is =, because in addition, it doesn't matter what order you add things in, it comes out the same.
Longitud = L Ancho = A
2A + 2L = 54
L = 2A Sustituir este valor por L en la primera ecuación:
2A + 2(2A) = 54
2A + 4A = 54
6A = 54
A = 9
También porque L = 2A,
L = 2(9) = 18
