Answer:

1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Use similar ratios. 5/4=x/6. Use cross multiplication. 30=4x. Divide by 4 to get x by itself. x=7.5 THIS IS NOT THE ANSWER!! This is the entire side length. Subtract 6 from this to get x. 7.5-6=1.5. x=1.5

Answer:

x = 3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use ratios to solve

6            6+x

-------- = -----------

4              5

Using cross products

6*5 = 4 * (6+x)

30 = 24 + 4x

Subtract 24 from each side

30 -24 = 24+4x-24

6 = 4x

Divide each side by 4

6/4 = 4x/4

3/2 = x

If c varies directly as (r + 1) and c = 8, when r= 3, calculate the value of r when c= 20.
Aneli [31]

Answer:

r = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that c varies directly as (r + 1) then the equation relating them is

c = k(r + 1) ← k is the constant of variation

To find k use the condition c = 8 when r = 3, then

8 = k(3 + 1) = 4k ( divide both sides by 4 )

2 = k

c = 2(r + 1) ← equation of variation

When c = 20, then

20 = 2(r + 1) ← divide both sides by 2

10 = r + 1 ( subtract 1 from both sides )

9 = r
