Answer:

8/3 = 1/x or x = 3/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up the ratio

(2/3)/(1/4) = 1/x  

solve for x  

 

8/3 = 1/x or x = 3/8

Answer:

Wax required for entire car = 3/8 bottle of wax

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given,

1/4 bottle of car wax can wax 2/3 of her car.

We need to <u>find the wax required to wax her car completely.</u>

Let's derive the relation between wax bottle and car waxing rate:

2/3 of car waxing needs 1/4 of bottle of wax.

for entire car waxing, i.e 1 car waxing needs (1/4) / (2/3) bottle of wax

            wax required for entire car     =    (1/4 )*(3/2)

                                                              =3/8 bottle of wax

Cody said that dividing a unit fraction by a whole number is the same as multiplying the unit fractions by a unit fraction with
LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, the statement is true, because to divide a fraction we have to turn the second fraction upside down and multiply them. Since a whole number x can be written as x/1, it also applies to the case of dividing a fraction by a whole number.

We can prove it with an example.

Dividing a unit fraction by a whole number  

1/2 ÷ 2 = (1x1) / (2x2) = 1/4

Multiplying the unit fractions by a unit fraction with a whole number as a denominator

1/2 x 1/2= (1x1) / (2x2) = 1/4

Use the quadratic formula to solve the equation.–x2 + 5x = 3
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Given the equation - x² + 5x = 3, which can be rewritten as:

- x² + 5x - 3 = 0

where a = -1, b = 5 and c = -3.

Quadratic formula:

\frac{-b\text{ }\pm\text{ }\sqrt[]{b^2\text{ - 4ac}}}{2a}

Now, we just replace the values of a, b and c on the equation above.

\frac{-5\text{ }\pm\text{ }\sqrt[]{5^2\text{ - 4(-1)(3)}}}{2(-1)}

=

\frac{5}{2}\text{ }\pm\text{ }\frac{\sqrt[]{13}}{2}
