Answer:

x = 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

When we add up the distance between the apartment and park with the distance between the park and the coffee shop, the total will equal nine miles.

Our equation will look like this:

(5x + 2) + (25x - 8) = 9

Add up the like terms

5x + 2 + 25x - 8 = 9

30x - 6 = 9

Add 6 to both sides

30x - 6 = 9

      + 6  + 6

30x = 15

Divide both sides by the coefficient, 30, to isolate the variable, x

30x/30 = 15/30

x = 15/30

Reduce

x = 1/2

There was a 340,000 cattle placed on feed. Write an equivalent ration that could be used to find how many of these cattle were b
ioda

An equivalent ratio would be 4/10, and the number of cattle would be 136,000.Explanation:The question asks for an equivalent ratio. This means a fraction that is equivalent to the fraction between 700-799, which is 2/5.To create an equivalent fraction, we multiply the numerator and denominator by the same number. Multiplying both by 2, we get (2*2)/(5*2) = 4/10.Tenths are useful when dealing with thousands, because taking a tenth involves getting rid of a zero. This means that 1/10 would be 34000; 4/10 would be 4 times that: 4(34000) = 136000.
