Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope of the trail is expressed as;

Slope = vertical distance/horizontal distance

Given

Vertical distance = 60metres

Horizontal distance= 300metres

Substitute

Slope = 60/300

Slope = 6×10/30×10

Slope = 6/30

Slope = 6×1/6×5

Slope = 1/5

Hence the slope of the trail in reduced fraction is 1/5

Find the value of x in the equation below.<br> 48 = 6x
Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

x=8

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a simple one-step algebraic equation. In algebra, to find x you must isolate the variable. To do this, use the property of equality. This property states that an equation is still true if you do the same thing to both sides. For example, the equation would still be true if you added 1 to both sides.

To isolate x divide both sides by 6. This equals 48/6 = 6x/6. Which simplifies to 8=x.
