To get rid of the 3, you multiply the x/3 by 3 to get x by itself. But if you multiply one side you have to multiply the other. So x = 99
Step-by-step explanation:
All you need to do is divide cost by mile since they already factored in the additional $3 for you.
1. 8/5 = $1.60
2. 11/8 = $1.375 = $1.38
3. 23/20 = $1.15
Answer:
Evening walk is shorter.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given that a nature center offers 2 guided walks. The morning walk is two-third mile. The evening walk is three-sixths mile. We are asked to find the shorter walk.
Let us compare both fractions by making the same denominator.




Upon making common denominator, we can see that two-thirds are equal to four sixths.
Since three-sixths is less than four-sixths, therefore, evening walk is shorter.
We will draw two rectangles, one with 6 sub-parts and other with three sub-parts.
We will shade 2 parts out of 3 sub-parts to represent 2/3 and shade 3 parts out of 6 sub-parts to represent 3/6.
Then we will further divide three sub-parts into 6 sub-parts as shown in the diagram that will represent 4/6.
X= -5/2 (0.4)
or
x= -2 1/2 (2.5)
4*-5 is -20 is does not equal -25 so it’s false
