2.5 / 18 = 6.4 / x
cross multiply
(2.5)(x) = (18)(6.4)
2.5x = 115.2
x = 115.2 / 2.5
x = 46.08 inches

5x - 2y = 3, -5x + 4y = 9 solutions
Vinvika [58]
5x-2y=3
-5x+4y=9

2y= 12
divide it by 2

y= 6


put y in any equation

5x-2 (6)=3

5x-12=3
5x= 3+12=15
divide by 5
x=3

y= 6

A radioactive substance decays exponentially. A scientist begins with 190 milligrams of a radioactive
worty [1.4K]

Answer: 65.1 (mg)

Step-by-step explanation:

y=190*e^{-a*t}\\\\Calculate\ a:\\\\t=33,y=95(mg)\\\\190*e^{-a*33}=95\\\\e^{-a*33}=0.5\\\\-a*33=ln(0.5)\\\\a=\dfrac{ln(\dfrac{1}{2}) }{-33} \\\\a=0,02100... \approx{0.021}\\\\If\ t=51\ h, y=190*e^{-0.02100*51}=65.09167...\approx{65.1}

Chad and Victoria are playing a game with a quarter and a spinner divided into sixths numbered one through six each player spins
rodikova [14]
The simple way to do this is to multiply the number of outcomes of one object times the number of outcomes in the other object. In this case a quarter has 2 sides, heads and tails. Since the spinner has 6 sections, there are 6 outcomes.


With this we can do, 2x6=12.

Therefore there are 12 outcomes
