(5/8) × 48 = (8/15) × n

Multiply by the inverse of the coefficient of n. That inverse is 15/8.

n = (15/8)×(5/8)×48 = (75/64)×48 = 225/4 = 56 1/4

5/8 of 48 is equal to 8/15 of 56 1/4

Solve 10 X + 8 / 2 X + 7 is equal to 4

ale4655 [162]

Answer:

x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{10x + 8}{2x + 7} = 4$

or, 10x + 8 = 4(2x + 7)

or, 10x + 8 = 8x + 28

or, 10x - 8x = 28 -8

or, 2x = 20

or, x = 20/2

or, x = 10

x = 10

A typical snake bite delivers 0.0045 grams of venom. Maria and Tammy were asked to write this number in scientific notation. The

Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

Maria

Step-by-step explanation:

A typical snake bite delivers 0.0045 grams of venom.

Maria wrote it in scientific notation as $4.5\times 10^{-3}$

Tammy wrote it in scientific notation as $4.5\times 10^{3}$

Any number can be written in the form of scientific notation as follows :

$N=a\times 10^b$ (a is real no and b is integer)

The given no is 0.0045.

There are 2 zeroes before 4. Also the decimal is there before 2 zeroes.

$0.0045=\dfrac{45}{10000}\\\\=\dfrac{45}{10}\times \dfrac{1}{1000}\\\\=4.5\times 10^{-3}$

Hence, Maria is correct.
