F(x)=x/2 -1/2. I got this by switching the variables x and y with each other and solving for y. The equation looks like this after I switched. x=2y+1. Then you just solve for y in the equation x=2y+1! Hope I helped!

Which ratio is greater, 4:5 or 3:4?

Grace [21]

4:5
explanation-

Express the given ratios as fraction

4 : 5 = 4/5 and 2 : 3 =2/3

Now find the L.C.M (least common multiple) of 5 and 3

The L.C.M (least common multiple) of 5 and 3 is 15.

Making the denominator of each fraction equal to 15, we have

4/5 = (4 ×3)/(5 ×3) = 12/15 and 2/3 = (2 ×5)/(3 ×5) = 10/15

Clearly, 12 > 10

Now, 12/15 > 10/15

Therefore, 4 : 5 > 2 : 3.

Ella has 0.5 lbs of sugar. How much water should she add to make the following concentrations? Tell Ella how much syrup she will

HACTEHA [7]

Ella has to add 32.833 lbs of water to get 33.333 lbs of syrup.

<u>Solution:</u>

Ella has 0.5 lbs of sugar. Let x lbs be the amount of water Ella should add to get the 1.5% of syrup,

$\Rightarrow0.5\text{ lbs }- 1.5\%$

$\Rightarrow x+0.5\text{ lbs }- 100\%$

On writing the proportion,

$\Rightarrow\dfrac{0.5}{x+0.5}=\dfrac{1.5}{100}\\ \\\Rightarrow0.5\cdot 100=(x+0.5)\cdot 1.5\\ \\\Rightarrow50=1.5x+0.75\\ \\\Rightarrow1.5x=50-0.75\\ \\\Rightarrow1.5x=49.25\\ \\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{49.25}{1.5}\approx 32.833\ lbs$
