Answer:
x : y = 9 : 13
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that
3x - y : x + 2y = 2 : 5
Express the ratio in fractional form, that is
=
( cross- multiply )
5(3x - y) = 2(x + 2y) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides )
15x - 5y = 2x + 4y ( subtract 2x from both sides )
13x - 5y = 4y ( add 5y to both sides )
13x = 9y ( divide both sides by 13 )
x =
y ( divide both sides by y )
=
, that is
x : y = 9 : 13
Answer:
44
Step-by-step explanation:
5 1/2 / 1/8
turn into improper fraction
11/2 then change to multiplication
11/2*8/1(have to flip)
88/2(multiply across)
simplify=44
Emily Dickinson's poetry was rescued for posterity by her sister (c). Emily Dickinson lived during the American Civil War, but she lived in her father's house in Amherst, Massachusetts.
