Answer:

51/2, also known as 25 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Each = Multiply.

If there's 17 students, they all give 1 1/2 minute speech, then you multiply to get the minutes of how long it will take.

1. Convert 1 1/2 to improper.

$17*\frac{1*2+1}{2}$

2. Simplify 1 × 2 = 2.

$17*\frac{2+1}{2}$

3. Simplify 2 + 1 = 3

$17*\frac{3}{2}$

4. Add it in one equation. (Since 17 = 17/1, it equals to 17*3/2, shown below)

$\frac{17*3}{2}$

5. Simplify 17 × 3 = 51.

$\frac{51}{2}$

Mixed Number = $25\frac{1}{2}$

Answer:

x = 4

x = 3

x = 10

x = 3

x = 16

x = 35

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{x}{5} :\frac{8}{10}$

x · 10 = 5 · 8

10x = 40

10x ÷ 10 = 40 ÷ 10

x = 4

$\frac{8}{12} :\frac{2}{x}$

x · 8 = 12 · 2

8x = 24

8x ÷ 8 = 24 ÷ 8

x = 3

$\frac{15}{3} :\frac{x}{2}$

x · 3 = 15 · 2

3x = 30

3x ÷ 3 = 30 ÷ 3

x = 10

$\frac{x}{6}:\frac{6}{12}$

x · 12 = 6 · 6

12x = 36

12x ÷ 12 = 36 ÷ 12

x = 3

$\frac{x}{8} :\frac{4}{2}$

x · 2 = 8 · 4

2x = 32

2x ÷ 2 = 32 ÷ 2

x = 16

$\frac{10}{2} :\frac{x}{7}$

x · 2 = 10 · 7

2x = 70

2x ÷ 2 = 70 ÷ 2

x = 35

When you are finding the slope of a line using two points, it doesn't matter which point you choose to be (x1,y1) and which poin

Typically if it is a linear function then it doesn't matter. However if it is a quadratic, cubic, and so on and so forth....( $x^{2},x^{3},x^{4}$ ) you may want to used the distance formula if you are not given any other points (with the exception of the vertex, asymptote or roots... etc).
