Answer: x = 4

Work: First, you must distribute the 1.50 to 8x and -12. The new equation you get after doing so is 12x - 18 = 30. Next, we are going to add 18 on both sides, cancelling on the side it was currently on. After cancelling, we get 12x = 48. Divide 12 on both side, and again cancelling on this side it's currently on, and you get x = 4.

Check: 1.50(8(4)-12) = 30. (After solving, you get 30) (check)

I hope this helps, and Happy Holidays! :)

Write two ratios equivalent to 24 : 9.

notsponge [240]

Answer:

8:3

16:6

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's check if 9 and 24 have any common factor. If they do have any common ones, we must find the GCF (greatest common factor).

Factors of 9: 1, 3, 9

Factors of 24: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24

The common factors both of the numbers share and 1 and 3. To find the GCF, simply compare one of the factors to the other.

1 < 3

Now that we know the GCF, we can divide the two numbers in the ratio 24 : 9 by it (3).

24:9

24/3:9/3

8:3

Now that our ratio is simplified, it's going to be much easier to find more ratios that are equivalent. 8:3 is already one equivalent ratio, but if we multiply each number in the ratio by any other number, we can get a new equivalent ratio. Let's multiply each number in the ratio by 2:

8:3

8 ⋅ 2:3 ⋅ 2

16:6

So, another equivalent ratio to 24:9 (and 8:3) is 16:6.
