The answer is x=4.
set the equations up: 8x-5=6x-3
Subtract 6x from one side and then the other side 2x-5=3
Add 5 from one side and then the other 2x=8
Divide 2 on each side which gets you x=4
Answer: The answer is D, 5/6.
Step-by-step explanation: The reciprocal of a fraction is that fraction but the numerator and denominater swapped places.
Answer:
D. 4
Step-by-step explanation:
The faster you go, the faster you get home (theoretically anyway) and vice versa. So if your speed is doubled, it'll take half the time to get home. But if your speed gets halved, it'll also take double the time to get home.
So, if at 60 mph it takes 1 hour to get home, then if your speed is divided by four to 15 mph, you need to multiply the time by the same number and thus the answer is 4.
The number is 8. 8x6=48, 8x5=40, 48-40=8.
