Answer:

x = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

13x = 3(x - 20) {Use distributive method:a(b+c)=(a*b) + (a*c)

13x = 3*x - 3*20

13x = 3x - 60 {Subtract '3x' from both sides}

13x -3x = -60

10x = -60 {Divide both sides by 10}

x= -60/10

x = -6

The number of chairs on a ski lift is inversely proportional to the distance between them a lift has 70 chairs when there’s spac

zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

Space between 80 evenly spaced chairs = 21m

Step-by-step explanation:

So, according to the given statement, we have the following expression:

No. of chairs ∝ $\frac{1}{Distance.Between.chairs}$

70 chairs are 24m apart, so it can be written as:

70 ∝ $\frac{1}{24}$

For, 1 chair , we divide both sides by 70

$\frac{70}{70}$ ∝ $\frac{1}{24(70)}$

1 ∝ $\frac{1}{24 (70)}$ -----------------------(Equation 1)

For 80 chairs:

Multiply both sides of Equation.1 by 80

80 ∝ $\frac{80}{24 (70)}$

80 ∝ $\frac{1}{21}$

So according to the above relation,

80 evenly spaced chairs will have a space of 21 m between them.
