Expressions are said to be equivalent if they hold the same value.

6x - \frac{2}{5} and \frac{6}{5x} -\frac{2}{5} are not equivalent.

Given that:

6x - \frac{2}{5}

Take LCM

6x - \frac{2}{5} = \frac{6 \times 5x -2}{5}

By comparison:

\frac{6 \times 5x -2}{5} is not equal to \frac{6}{5x} -\frac{2}{5}

i.e.

\frac{6 \times 5x -2}{5} \ne \frac{6}{5x} -\frac{2}{5}

Hence,

6x - \frac{2}{5} and \frac{6}{5x} -\frac{2}{5} are not equivalent.

The school cafeteria sells two kinds of wraps: vegetarian and chicken. The vegetarian wrap cost $1 and the chicken wrap cost$1.8
vfiekz [6]
Let us assume the number of vegetarian wraps made = x
Let us assume the number of chicken wraps made = y
Then
x + y = 70
x = 70 - y
And
x + 1.80y = 98.80
Putting the value of x from the first equation in the second equation, we get
x + 1.80y = 98.80
70 - y + 1.80y = 98.80
0.80y = 28.80
y = 36
Putting the value of y in the first equation, we get
x + y = 70
x + 36 = 70
x = 34
From the above deduction, we can conclude that the number of vegetarian warps sold was 34. I hope the answer has come to your desired help.

SSSSS [86.1K]
Here you would want to use the sine function, since it’s making a triangle with the ground, and length of the string, the height to the kite. This can be found by 65sin(70°) which is ≈ 61.08 meters
