Alan solved the proportion StartFraction x over 200 EndFraction = StartFraction 8 over 25 EndFraction as shown. StartFraction x

over 200 EndFraction = StartFraction 8 over 25 EndFraction. (8) (x) = (25) (200). 8 x = 5,000. StartFraction 8 x over 8 EndFraction = StartFraction 5,000 over 8 EndFraction. X = 625. What is Alan’s error? He got the wrong product when he multiplied 25 by 200. He got the wrong quotient when he divided 5,000 by 8. He mixed up the positions of 8 and 25 in the equation (8) (x) = (25) (200). He mixed up the positions of 8 and 200 in the equation (8) (x) = (25) (200)

Answer:

C on edge

Step-by-step explanation:

Alan solved the proportion StartFraction x over 200 EndFraction = StartFraction 8 over 25 EndFraction as shown.

StartFraction x over 200 EndFraction = StartFraction 8 over 25 EndFraction. (8) (x) = (25) (200). 8 x = 5,000. StartFraction 8 x over 8 EndFraction = StartFraction 5,000 over 8 EndFraction. X = 625.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The proportion that Alan solved was

x/200 = 8/25

His working as shown was

(8)(x) = (25) (200)

8x = 5000

He divided both sides of the equation by 8. It became

8x/8 = 5000/8

x = 625

The correct steps are

25x = 200 × 8 = 1600

Dividing both sides of the equation by 25, it becomes

x = 1600/25

x = 64

Alan's error were:

1) He got the wrong product when he multiplied 25 by 200.

2)He got the wrong quotient when he divided 5,000 by 8.

6r + 7 = 13 + 7r<br> what is r?
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

6r + 7 = 13 + 7r

subtract 6r from both sides...

7 = 13 + r

subtract 13 from both sides...

-6 = r

r = -6

I need help please and thank you
Stels [109]

Answer:

2.72 x 10^4

Step-by-step explanation:

2.4 x 10^4

= 24000

3.2 x 10^3

= 3200

Therefore,

(2.4 x 10^4) + (3.2 x 10^3)

= 24000 + 3200

= 27200

= 2.72 x 10^4

(5,1); m=2 write an equation of the line
gtnhenbr [62]
Hey there! :) 

To find an equation of a line that passes through (5, 1) and has a slope of 2, we'll need to plug our known variables into the slope-intercept equation.

Slope-intercept equation : y = mx + b ; where m=slope, b=y-intercept

Since we're already given the slope, all we really need to do is find the y-intercept.

We can do this by plugging our known values into the slope-intercept equation.

y = mx + b

Since we're trying to find "b," we need to plug in "y, m, x" into our formula.

(1) = (2)(5) + b

Simplify.

1 = 10 + b

Subtract 10 from both sides.

1 - 10 = b

Simplify.

-9 = b

So, our y-intercept is 9! 

Now, we can very simply plug our known values into slope-intercept form.

y = mx + b

y = 2x - 9 → final answer

~Hope I helped!~
