Answer:

x > 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

- 8x + 2x - 16 < - 5x + 7x ← simplify both sides

- 6x - 16 < 2x ( subtract 2x from both sides )

- 8x - 16 < 0 ( add 16 to both sides )

- 8x < - 16 ( divide both sides by - 8 )

Remembering to reverse the symbol as a consequence of dividing by a negative value.

x > 2

Simple proportions.

You want a 1:5 ratio.
You have a 5:1 ratio.
So you add another 24 drops of white.
5:25 = 1:5
or
5/x = 1/5 and cross multiply.

Divide. (3 3/4)÷(−2 1/2) Enter your answer as a mixed number, in simplified form, in the box.

neonofarm [45]

$3 \frac{3}{4} = \frac{15}{4}$

Because (4*3) + 3 = 15. Similary find the improper fraction for -2 1/2.

(15/4) / (-5/2) = -3/2

Convert -3/2 into a mixed fraction.

Therefore, -3/2 = -1 1/2.
