Answer:

16 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up a proportion where x is the height of the tree:

\frac{4}{5} = \frac{x}{20}

Cross multiply and solve for x:

5x = 80

x = 16

So, the tree is 16 feet tall

HELP ME PLZ !!! IT'S ALGEBRA
Drupady [299]

Answer:

x = - 8/23

y = 40/23

Step-by-step explanation:

-5x- y = 0

and

-8x+3y = 8

The first step to solve this would be to get what one of the two variables equal. The easiest in this case is y from the first equation.

-5x-y = 0

-y = 5x

y = - 5x

Now you can take this y value and plug it into the section equation.

-8x + 3(-5x) = 8

-8x - 15x = 8

-23x = 8

x = - (8/23)

Once you get the x value you can plug it back into equation one to get y's value

-5*-(8/23)  - y = 0

40/23 - y = 0

y = 40/23

How to cross multiple 3/5 by 10
Vika [28.1K]

Here is you're answer:

In order to cross multiply you have to multiply the numerator and denominator of the first fraction by the bottom number of the second fraction and see if the equation is still true:

  • \frac{3}{5} \times 10
  • \frac{3}{5} \times \frac{10}{1}
  • 3 \times 1 = 5 \times 10
  • Solve if you like:
  • 3 \times 1 = 3
  • 5 \times 10 = 50
  • = \frac{4}{50}

Therefore you're answer is "3 × 1 = 5 × 10."

Hope this helps!
