Answer:

x = 49

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

\frac{x-16}{x+6} = \frac{3}{5} ( cross- multiply )

5(x - 16) = 3(x + 6) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides

5x - 80 = 3x + 18 ( subtract 3x from both sides )

2x - 80 = 18 ( add 80 to both sides )

2x = 98 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 49

Answer:

2.5% and 2.5 · 10^-3, 0.25, 2/5, √5

Step-by-step explanation:

0.25, 2/5, 2.5 · 10^-3, 2.5%, √5

Now let's list them all in the same form, why not decimals.

0.25 = 0.25

2/5 = 4/10 = 40/100 = 0.4

2.5 · 10^-3 = 2.5 · 0.01 = 0.025

2.5% = 0.025

√5 ≅ 2.236
