You can set both fractions to have the same denominator by multiplying 6/8 (both the 6 and 8) by 2 to keep the value of the fraction, while turning the denominator to 16. So you get 12/16=y/16.
That means for the equation to be true y has to be 12.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
D is the answer
Step-by-step explanation:
We want a mixture of low-fat and whole milk to equal 32ounces
Therefore, we know one equation is:
l + w = 32
That 32 ounce mixture should be 2% butter fat
So the amount of butter fat we want is
2% of 32 = 0.64 ounces
At the same time, this mixture contains low-fat and whole milk, which contain 1% and 3.25% butter fat respectively.
therefore, the butter fat in low-fat and whole milk is 0.01l and 0.0325w respectively.
The coefficients are just the percentages in decimal form
Due to the law of conservation of mass,
The addition of these two should yield the final amount of butter fat, meaning the other equation is:
0.01l + 0.0325w = 0.64
Answer:
x = 30
Step-by-step explanation:
here 50 is hypotenuse as it is opposite of 90 degree.
x and x + 10 are the two other smaller sides of a right angled triangle respectively.
using pythagoras theorem,
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
x^2 + (x + 10)^2 = 50^2
x^2 + x^2 + 20x + 100 = 2500
2x^2 + 20x + 100 = 2500
2x^2 + 20x + 100 - 2500 = 0
2x^2 + 20x - 2400 = 0
2(x^2 + 10x - 1200) = 0
x^2 + 10x - 1200 = 0
x^2 + (40 - 30) - 1200 = 0
x^2 + 40x - 30x - 1200 = 0
x(x + 40) - 30(x + 40x) = 0
(x + 40)(x - 30) = 0
either x + 40 = 0 OR x - 30 = 0
x = 0 - 40
x = -40
x - 30 = 0
x = 30
x = -40,30
since the length and distance is not measured in negative ur answer will be 30

thank u very much . At first i was wrong and giannathecookie i m really sorry
This is your answer: x= -1/4 or x=5/4. Plze mark me brainiest:)
I don’t get it but probably the scissors lol
