Answer:
90
Step-by-step explanation:
1/5x+4=1/3x-8
add 8 to both sides and subtract 1/5x from both sides
4+8=1/3x-1/5x
12=5/15x-3/15x
12=2/15x
divide both sides by 2/15
12÷2/15=x
when dividing by a fraction, invert and multiply
12*15/2=x
90=x
CHECK:
1/5(90)+4=1/3(90)-8
18+4=30-8
22=22

Step-by-step explanation:
Explanation
6 sprinters are in a race. Any one of the 6 could win. None of them can win 2 medals. So the first result is 6
5 runners remain. The second medal goes to any one of the 5
4 runners remain after 1 of the 5 have been choosen. Any one of the 4 could win.
Answer 6 * 5 * 4 = 120
There are 120 ways of awarding 3 medals to 6 people.
Answer: a) y=-29x-20 b) y=3/5x-18
Step-by-step explanation:
a) m = (-49-38)/(1 - (-2)) = -87/3 = -29
y=-29x+b --> Substitute (1,-49) as a point
(-49)=-29(1)+b
-49=-29+b
-b=-29+49
b=-20
Therefore, the equation of the line is y=-29x-20
b) m = (-18-(-9)/(0-15)) = -9/-15 = 3/5
The y-intercept is (0,-18) as it's where the line intersects the y-axis and x equals 0
Therefore, the equation of the line is y=3/5x-18
