Answer:

4.8 or about 5 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this problem, you must first multiply the 4 bases × 90 feet to get how much feet he runs in 1 home run. 4 × 90= 360 feet. Then you must multiply 360 feet × 70 homeruns, this will give you how many feet he ran in 70 homeruns. Your answer will be 25,200 feet. Now, there are 5,280 feet in <em>one</em> mile, so you must divide 25,200 by 5,280. Using a calculator, my answer was 4.7727272727. I then rounded it up to 4.8 miles, or about 5 miles.

X/5-2=x/2+3 solve for x
Makovka662 [10]
Solve for x:x/5 - 2 = x/2 + 3
Put each term in x/5 - 2 over the common denominator 5: x/5 - 2 = x/5 - (10)/5:x/5 - (10)/5 = x/2 + 3
x/5 - (10)/5 = (x - 10)/5:(x - 10)/5 = x/2 + 3
Put each term in x/2 + 3 over the common denominator 2: x/2 + 3 = x/2 + 6/2:(x - 10)/5 = x/2 + 6/2
x/2 + 6/2 = (x + 6)/2:(x - 10)/5 = (x + 6)/2
Multiply both sides by 10:(10 (x - 10))/5 = (10 (x + 6))/2
10/5 = (5×2)/5 = 2:2 (x - 10) = (10 (x + 6))/2
10/2 = (2×5)/2 = 5:2 (x - 10) = 5 (x + 6)
Expand out terms of the left hand side:2 x - 20 = 5 (x + 6)
Expand out terms of the right hand side:2 x - 20 = 5 x + 30
Subtract 5 x from both sides:(2 x - 5 x) - 20 = (5 x - 5 x) + 30
2 x - 5 x = -3 x:-3 x - 20 = (5 x - 5 x) + 30
5 x - 5 x = 0:-3 x - 20 = 30
Add 20 to both sides:(20 - 20) - 3 x = 20 + 30
20 - 20 = 0:-3 x = 30 + 20
30 + 20 = 50:-3 x = 50
Divide both sides of -3 x = 50 by -3:(-3 x)/(-3) = 50/(-3)
(-3)/(-3) = 1:x = 50/(-3)
Multiply numerator and denominator of 50/(-3) by -1:Answer:  x = (-50)/3

If the ratio of dogs to cats at an animal shelter is 2:5, then the number of cats is _____ times the number of dogs.
saul85 [17]
So 2:5 means that 5/7 animals are cats and 2/7 are dogs. I believe if you divide u will get your answer. 5/7 * 7/2 = 1.25x the number of dogs

valina [46]
Since you have to move the decimal point the the right by 7 places to get the decimal point after the one.  You must multiply by 1/10 seven times, which is the same as:
