I can help you with #20. For example, lets say 3/5, this fraction would be made up of 5 parts and 3 are covered, which doesn't make it full, if it was 5/5 it would be full. When you do something with a reciprocal you turn it over, so 3/5 would be turned over to 5/3, thus making it a whole number

Answer:

6) x = 40.5

8) x = 16.5

Step-by-step explanation:

6) 45/x = 20/18

simplify and cross-multiply to get:

45/x = 10/9

10x = 405

x = 40.5

8) 22/8 = x/6

11/4 = x/6

4x = 66

x = 33/2

x = 16.5

As a first step in solving the system shown, Yumiko multiplies both sides of the equation 2x – 3y = 12 by 6. By what factor shou

GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

Yumiko should multiply the other equation by 3.

If she adds the two equations she would be left with the variable 'x'.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the two equations are as follows:

$2x - 3y = 12 \hspace{5mm} \hdots (1)$

$5x + 6y = 18 \hspace{5mm} \hdots (2)$

It is given that she multiplies the first equation by 6. Therefore, (1) becomes

$12x - 18y = 72 \hspace{15mm} \hdots (a)$

Now, note that the sign of the variable 'y' is negative. So, if we make the co-effecient of 'y' equal in both the cases, add them it would result in the elimination of the variable 'y'.

The co-effecient of y in Equation (2) is 6. To make it 18 like it is in Equation (1), we multiply throughout by 3.

Therefore, Equation (2) becomes:

$15x + 18y = 54 \hspace{5mm} \hdots (b)$

Now, we add Equation (a) and Equation (b).

$\implies 12x - 18y + 15x + 18y = 72 + 54$

$\implies 27x = 126$

Factor: 3

Equation: 27x = 126

Explain why any rational number is either a terminating or repeating decimal?

harkovskaia [24]

Because if the number was rational then we can tell by looking at the numbers. The rational number should be one number or a repeating decimal or terminating number. plus because if a number was like this 5.7696... that means its irrational because we dont know the end of the number. The rational numbers are terminating numbers or either decimal or repeating numbers because we know the end of those numbers.
