I can see you come from outside the USA. No insults intended!!
.
Anyways, we have to put one side of the ratio and match it to 48. 
.
Or even better...
.
MAKE!!
A!!
PROPORTION!!
.
So... Let's say 7 is proportional to 48... so 7/5 = 48/x, where x is the number equivalent to ratio of 5.
.
Cross multiply!!
<span>.
</span>7x = 240.
.
Divide 7 on both sides.
.
x = 34 2/7.
.
Hope I helped!!

Kyle is making a frame for a rectangular piece of art. The length of the frame is 3 times the width, as shown below.
NeX [460]

Answer:

3.75 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of the frame is 3 times the width.

Let the width be x.

The length will be 3x.

Kyle uses 10 feet of wood to make the frame. This means that the perimeter is 10 feet.

The perimeter of a rectangle is:

P = 2(L + W)

=> 10 = 2(3x + x)

=> 10/2 = 4x

5 = 4x

=> x = 5/4 = 1.25 feet

The width is 1.25 feet. The length is therefore:

1.25 * 3 = 3.75 feet

Given that f(x) = x^2 - 4x +1, find the value of m if f(m) = -3
iragen [17]

a. Answer:  m = 2

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

f(x) = x² - 4x + 1

f(m) = m² - 4m + 1 = -3

         m² - 4m + 4 = 0

         (m - 2)(m - 2) = 0

               m = 2

***************************************************

b. Answer:  k = 2 and k = 5

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

f(x) = x² - 7x + 14

f(k) = k² - 7k + 14 = 4

        k² - 7k + 10 = 0

        (k - 2)(k - 5) = 0

        k = 2   k = 5
