The equation
a/4 = 2/3
do cross multiplication
8 = 3a
a = 8/3
Performing the expression.
= (a - 4) / 4
= (8/3 - 4) / 4
= (8-12 / 3)/4
= -4/3 / 4
= -1 / 3
So the answer is letter b.
There should be a y axis and a x axis you would start off with your first number from the x to the y then you will find what your looking for because you don't have a picture of the work
I think it's A..............
Answer:
The answer should be C
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the larger number.
Let y represent the smaller number.
x-y=4 Given
3x=5y-2 Given
Now we can just substitute; let x=4+y
Substitute 4+y for x in the second equation:
3(4+y)=5y-2
12+3y=5y-2
-2y=-14
y=7
Substitute back (into BOTH equations to double check work).
x, the larger number, is 11
