you mean : 5/8x + 1/16x = 5/16 +x
<=> 10/16x +1/16x = (5 +16x)/16
(16x # 0)
<=> 11/16x = x(5+16x)/(16x)
<=>11 = x(5+16x)
<=> 11 = 16x^2 + 5x
<=> x =-1 or x =11/16
Answer:
The fifth multiple of the number 2 is 10
Step-by-step explanation:
For example, y = k/x; when x = 3 => k = 3y; when y = 9 => k = 27 and x = 27/9 = 3;
The answer is 3!
STEP - BY - STEP EXPLANATION
What to find?
The function that reflects the given ratios given.
Given:
For every eight guests, 2 orders.
To determine the function;
Let y be the number of orders and x be the number of guests.
If for every eight guest, there must be 2 orders, then we will have;

So that, if there are 8 guests, that is; when x=8

ANSWER
y= 1/4 x
