Well we can put that word problem into a equation so, 8+x/4=5. Now what I would do is move the 8 to the other side, and since it moved to the other side it becomes a -8 so now we have x/4 = -3. Now I would multiply both side by 4 to get x = -12

Answer= X = -12

GIVING BRAINLIEST Write a proportion that could be used to solve for each variable. Then solve. 16 walls in 40 hours 3 walls in
soldi70 [24.7K]

The proportion that could be used to solve for the variable is \frac{16}{40}=\frac{3}{h} ; h = 7.5 ⇒ answer b

Step-by-step explanation:

A proportional relationship: one variable is always a constant value times the other, that constant is called the constant of proportionality

  • y = k x is the equation of the proportional relationship
  • We can write the proportional relationship in the form \frac{y_{1}}{x_{1}}=\frac{y_{2}}{x_{2}}=k

The number of walls and the number of hours are increased or decreased together

∴ The number of walls and the number of hours are proportion

∵ 16 walls in 40 hours

∵ 3 walls in h hours

- By using the second rule above

∴ \frac{16}{40}=\frac{3}{h}

The proportion that could be used to solve for the variable is  \frac{16}{40}=\frac{3}{h}

Let us solve it to find h

∵  \frac{16}{40}=\frac{3}{h}

- By using cross multiplication

∴ 16 × h = 3 × 40

∴ 16 h = 120

- Divide both sides by 16

∴ h = 7.5

The value of h is 7.5 hours

celeste wants to have her hair cut and permed and also go to lunch. she knows she will need 59$. the perm cost twice as much as
miv72 [106K]
Let's first start off with an equation to represent Celeste's budget:
h + p + l = 59
Where:
'h' is the money in dollars that she needs to get her hair cut
'p' is the money in dollars that she needs to get her hair permed
'l' is the money in dollars that she needs for lunch

Now let's simplify this equation using the information that was given:
l = 5 *This must be true since it is told that she needs $5 for lunch
0.5p = h *This is because the perm costs twice as much as the hair cut

Our new/updated equation is:
0.5p + p + 5 = 59

This is much easier to solve, let's rearrange and solve for 'p':
0.5p + p = 59 - 5
1.5p = 54
p = 36

Therefore the perm costs $36

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any further questions.
