One way in which to approach this problem would be to treat it as an equation of ratios and to cross multiply:
<span>[(4x + 15) / 5x)] = 1/2 could be written as:
4x + 15 1
----------- = ---
5x 2
Then 8x + 30 = 5x
3x = -30, and so x = -10 (answer). Be certain to check this answer through substitution!

you had to multiply 16*9=144
Answer:
You collected 1,395 kg.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since each pound would be 45 kg and you collected 31 pounds more then you would have to multiply 45 times 31.
Answer:
x = 6 sqrt(3)
Step-by-step explanation:
Since this is a right triangle, we can use the Pythagorean theorem
a^2 + b^2 = c^2 where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse
6^2+ x^2 = 12^2
36 + x^2 = 144
Subtract 36 from each side
x^2 = 144-36
x^2 =108
Take the square root of each side
sqrt(x^2) = sqrt(108)
x = sqrt(36*3)
x = 6 sqrt(3)
