Step-by-step explanation:
2 is to 4 because 64/8 is 8. 4/2 is 2. 2 x 2 is in proportion to 8 x 8
We need to use the variables m and n to represent both numbers.
Their sum must equal -15. Therefore, we can write the next equation:
m + n = -15
If one number is five less than the other, we need to choose one variable and then we can write it in terms of the other variable. Then:
n = m-5
To find the value for each number, we can replace the n equation on the first equation:
m + n = -15
m + (m-5)= -15
Then:
m + m - 5 = -15
2m -5 = -15
Solve the equation for m:
Add both sides 5 units:
2m - 5 +5 = -15+5
2m = -10
Divide both sides by 2:
2m/2 = -10/2
m = -5
Finally, replace the m value on the first equation:
m + n = -15
-5 + n = -15
Then, solve the equation for n:
Add both sides by 5:
-5+5 + n = -15 +5
n = -10
Hence, both numbers are m=-5 and n= -10.
The equations separated by a comma are m + n = -15,n = m-5.
The numbers separated by a comma are -5,-10.
30 treadmills : 36 ellipticals
this could be written in a few ways, but i am going to write it as a fraction. since treadmills come first, you put 30/36.
now that you have your fraction you have to find the GCF (greatest common factor) of the two numbers. the GCF is 6, so you have to divide 30 treadmills by 6, and 36 ellipticals by 6.
30/6=5
36/6=6
5/6 or 5:6 is the simplified ratio of treadmills to ellipticals
comment for any questions!!
