Answer:
6/5
Step-by-step explanation:
m is your rate of change you need to get y by itself.
3/2x - 15 = 5/4y
3x/2 - 30/2 = 5/4y
3x-30/2 = 5/4y
3x - 30 = 2 x 5/4y
3x - 30 = 2 x 5/4x2y (cross out 2 and 4)
3x - 30 = 5/2y
2 x 3x - 2 x 30 = 2 x 5/4y
6x - 60 = 5y
6x/5 - 60/5 = 5y/5
y = 6/5 x x - 12
No, because if you add it up all together her recipe does not call for 20 cups.
You first multiply 6 and 8 to see how many people are put in the vans without rented a van. This would equal 48. You then subtract 48 from 59 to see how many people still need to be in a van. This would leave you with 11 people. Then you divide 8 from 11 to get 1 3/8. This means you need 2 vans to fit everyone.
Let x = the amount of time that the third person needs to work on the job to add up to one
1 = 1/2 + 1/3 + x
1 - 1/2 - 1/3 = x
To subtract the fractions we need to put them all over a common denominator. Let's use 3*2 = 6 as the denominator; so 1 = 6/6, 1/2 = 3/6, 1/3 = 2/6:
6/6 - 3/6 - 2/6 = x
1/6 = x
The third person must work 1/6 time on the project.
Answer:
8 subtracted from the product of 9 and x
