Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Set it up as fractions, Alex over Peter.

3/5 : 33/x Let x represent Peter's amount. Now find out: how do you get from 3 to 33? What times 3 equals 33? 11

What you do on the top, you must do on the bottom. If 3 times 11 equals 33, then 5 times 11 equals x. 5 times 11 equals 55, so x equals 55.

Peter will get 55. Don't forget the pound symbol.

PLESE HELPPP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer:

B. $\frac{6}{2x^{2} - 5x}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The product of the ratioal expressions given above can be found as follows:

$= \frac{2}{x} * \frac{3}{2x - 5}$

Multiply the denominators together, and the numerators together, separately to get a single expression

$\frac{2(3)}{x(2x - 5)}$

$= \frac{6}{x(2x) - x(5)}$

$= \frac{6}{2x^{2} - 5x}$

The product of the expression $\ = \frac{2}{x}*\frac{3}{2x - 5}$ = $\frac{6}{2x^{2} - 5x}$

The answer is B.
