(1/2)/2=3/x
we can cross multiply, aka multiply both sides by 2x
(1/2)x=2*3
(1/2)x=6
times 2/1 both sides
x=12
Answer: there are 8 quarters in the jar
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of nickels that is inside the jar.
The total number of coins inside the jar is 20.
Probability is expressed as
Number of possible or favorable outcomes/total number of outcomes.
The probability of selecting a nickel is 0.6. This is expressed as
0.6 = x/20
Cross multiplying, it becomes
x = 20 × 0.6
x = 12
Since there are 12 nickels inside the jar, then the number of quarters would be
20 - 12 = 8
Answer:
25 mins
Step-by-step explanation:
Harpeet worked -- x mins
Aiysha worked -- 2x mins
If Aiysha worked 50 mins, Harpeet worked:
2x = 50
x = 25 mins
Thenks and mark me brainliest :))
Consider what the slope of this line would be. Slope is rise/run; this line rises 7 (5 - (-2)) and runs 0 (0 - 0). This means that the slope would be 7/0. Dividing by zero is not possible, therefore, it cannot be written in slope-intercept form.
Start by dividing both sides by two to get 3 = y + 2. then subtract two from both sides to get y = 1.
