A/5/8 = 3/5 / 2/3

We can take the reciprocal of the denominator, since the denominator itself is a fraction

The above equation can be rephrased as,
(a) / (5/8) = (3/5) / (2/3)

Taking reciprocal

8a / 5 = 3*3 / 5*2

8a / 5 = 9 / 5*2

a = 9 * 5 / 5*2*8

5’s get canceled, 2 and 8 gets multiplied in the denominator.

We will then be left with,

a = 9 / 16


I have also verified it and got the right answer.

Pam says she will charge 125 plus 15 an hour to paint a house. Michelle will charge $50 plus $20 per hour to paint a house. Afte
aniked [119]
Let us assume the number of hours after which the cost of Pam and Michelle will be same = x
Now let us concentrate on the information's already given in the problem.
Fixed charge taken by Pam = $125
Charge per hour taken by Pam = $15
Fixed charge taken by Michelle = $50
Charge per hour taken by Michelle = $20
Then
125 + 15x = 50 + 20x
20x - 15x = 125 - 50
5x = 75
x = 75/5
  = 15
So after 15 hours the charge taken by Pam and Michelle will be the same. I hope the procedure for doing this type of problem is clear to you.

NemiM [27]

Since .25*10 is 2.50 and .10*15 is 1.50 it equals $4. So the ratio is 10:15 which turns to 2:3 ratio simplified.

Solve using elimination. -2x + y = 1 -6x - y = -9<br> HELP
laiz [17]

Answer:

(x,y) = (8,7)

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve equation [2] for the variable  x

 [2]    x = y + 15

Plug this in for variable  x  in equation [1]

[1]    (y +15) + y = 1

[1]    2y = -14

Solve equation [1] for the variable  y

[1]    2y = - 14

[1]    y = - 7  By now we know this much :

x = y+15

y = -7

// Use the  y  value to solve for  x

x = (-7)+15 = 8

Solution :

{x,y} = {8,-7}
