The answer is $\bf \dfrac{77}{72}$ .

Steps required :

Suppose the number as x.

Frame a linear equation according to the question.

Transposing -5/8 from L.H.S to R.H.S. (Sign gets changed while transposition)

Performing addition.

The number we got after performing addition is the required answer.

The radius of a circle with an area of 60 square centimeters is represented by the expression √60/π centimeters. What is another

monitta

Answer:

r= 2 √(15/π)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Area of circle =60sq cm

radius=√60/π

$Area=\pi r^2\\60=\pi r^2\\\\\sqrt{\frac{60}{\pi}}=r\\\\\sqrt{\frac{15\times 4}{\pi}}=r\\2\sqrt{\frac{15}{\pi}}=r$

Hence the radius can be written as 2 √(15/π)

A fisherman can row upstream at 5mph and downstream at 10mph he started rowing upstream until he got tired and then rowed downst

AlekseyPX

We have been given that the upstream speed is $5 mph$ and the down stream speed is $10mph$ .

Let the fisherman traveled a distance of x miles.

The total time of the trip is 6 hours.

Relations between speed (s), time (t) and distance (d) is $s = \frac{d}{t}$

Hence, $t= \frac{d}{s}$

Time upstream + time downstream = 6

$\frac{x}{5} +\frac{x}{10} =6$

lcm = 10

$\frac{2x+x}{10} =6$

=> $\frac{3x}{10} =6$

Cross multiplying, $3x= 60$

x = 20 miles .. Answer.

Solve each proportion, round to one decimal place. 4/9=x/20

guapka [62]

In order to solve a proportion you need to cross multiply, so you would do:

4x20 and 9xX and you would get...

9x=80

then divide by nine to get

x=8.8888888889

which is technically 8.9
