Jada solved the equation Negative StartFraction 4 over 9 EndFraction = StartFraction x over 108 EndFraction for x using the step

s below. What was Jada’s error?
Negative StartFraction 4 over 9 EndFraction = StartFraction x over 108 EndFraction
Negative StartFraction 4 over 9 EndFraction (Negative StartFraction 9 over 4 EndFraction) = StartFraction x over 108 EndFraction (Negative StartFraction 9 over 4 EndFraction)
x = negative StartFraction 1 over 48 EndFraction

Jada should have multiplied both sides of the equation by 108.
Jada should have multiplied both sides of the equation by Negative StartFraction 4 over 9 EndFraction.
The product of Negative StartFraction 9 over 4 EndFraction and StartFraction 1 over 108 EndFraction is not equal to Negative StartFraction 1 over 48 EndFraction.
The product of Negative StartFraction 9 over 4 EndFraction and 108 should have been the value of x.

Write an equation of the line passing through point P(−8, 0) that is perpendicular to the line 3x−5y = 6.
denpristay [2]

Answer:

y = -5/3 * x - 40/3

Step-by-step explanation:

A perpendicular line has an opposite and a reciprocal of the slope.

Your equation should be:

-5y = -3x +6

Divide all parts by -5.

y = 3/5x - 6/5

Since the perpendicular line has an opposite and a reciprocal of the slope, the slope will be -5/3.

Now you must make an equation in point-slope form. This is an example of that form. You will need at least one point to make this equation work. In this case we have (-8,0).

In put the y and x coordinates like this:

y - 0 = -5/3(x - (-8)

Start solving the equation.

y - 0 = -5/3(x + 8)

y - 0 = -5/3 * x - 40/3

y = -5/3 * x - 40/3

This is your equation.

y = -5/3 * x - 40/3

(You can make it -5/3x in your answer but it looks weird online. You may think that it is -5 divided by 3 times x, but it actually is 5/3 times x. That's why I wrote it as y = -5/3 * x - 40/3)

Bag of candy contains 4 strawberry
Andreas93 [3]

There are 9 candies in total, with 5 being orange. Think of it. For the first grab, you have a 5/9 chance of it being orange flavored. Now there are 4 orange flavored candies, and 8 total candies in the bag. Grabbing a second candy, Billy has a 4/8 chance of grabbing an orange flavored candy. So your two fractions are...

5/9, 4/8

Can you combine these two fractions for a final answer?
