Answer:

5/3

Step-by-step explanation:

30/t = 18/r

Multiplying by r both sides,

30*r /t = 18

Dividing by 30 both sides,

r/t = 18/30 = 3/5

So, t/r = 5/3

Answer:

  t/r = 5/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Every proportion can be written 4 ways. I like to think of them as "upside down and sideways." They are ...

  \dfrac{30}{t}=\dfrac{18}{r}\qquad\dfrac{t}{30}=\dfrac{r}{18}\\\\\dfrac{30}{18}=\dfrac{t}{r}\qquad\dfrac{18}{30}=\dfrac{r}{t}

__

Knowing this, you can simply rewrite your proportion as ...

  t/r = 30/18

  t/r = 5/3

_____

More formally, you could multiply both sides by t/18:

  (30/t)(t/18) = (18/r)(t/18)

  30/18 = t/r . . . . as above

Reducing the fraction gives ...

  t/r = 5/3

__

<em>Additional comments</em>

The usually-recommended procedure for solving something like this is to "cross-multiply" as a first step. That will give ...

  30r = 18t

Of course, that is equivalent to multiplying both sides by rt, the product of the denominators.

From here, to get t/r, you need to divide both sides by 18r.

  (30r)/(18r) = (18t)/(18r)

  30/18 = t/r

The combination of the two steps, multiply by rt, divide by 18r, is equivalent to multiplying by (rt)/(18r) = t/18, as we did above. That is, you can save some work by doing both steps at once--or by simply rewriting the proportion.

Becky tried to evaluate an expreisson step by step
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

step 2

Step-by-step explanation:

1) so in step 2 Becky make 4/5-5/4=0

this is wrong, as we have to make common denominators first:

16/20-25/20=-9/20

so now, we got -9/20

-9/20+7=

2) make common denominators again

-9/20+140/20=131/20

this is the right answer Hope this helps!

Benjamin’s and David’s ages add up to 36 years. The sum of twice their respective ages also add up to 72 years. Find their ages
nydimaria [60]
Answer:Benjamin’s age = 30 and David’s age = 6

Explanation:

Let x be the age of Benjamin
Let y be the age of David

x + y = 36

And 2x + 2y = 72

If we plug 30 for x and 6 for y we get:

30 + 6 = 36
36 = 36

2(30) + 2(6) = 72
60 + 12 = 72
72 = 72

=
