Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{x}{5}  =  \frac{16}{21}  \\ by \: cross \: multiplication \\ x \times 21 = 5 \times 16 \\ 21x = 80 \\ x =  \frac{80}{21}  \\ x = 3.8

\\ \sf\longmapsto \dfrac{x}{5}=\dfrac{16}{21}

\\ \sf\longmapsto 21x=16(5)

\\ \sf\longmapsto 21x=80

\\ \sf\longmapsto x=\dfrac{80}{21}

\\ \sf\longmapsto x=3.6

X-3/35=2/15 please help me and answer it with an explanation
-BARSIC- [3]
I believe x = 23/105 because you would have to add 3/35 to both sides and when you add 2/15 to 3/35 you get an answer of 23/105.

Hope this helps!

Relationship A has a lesser rate than Relationship B. This table represents Relationship B.
Alja [10]

Answer:

y = 18.1x ; and y = 18x

Explanation:

The rate of change in Relationship B can be found by using the formula for slope:

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Using the first two points, we have

m=\frac{73-36.50}{4-2}=\frac{36.50}{2}=18.25

We know that Relationship A has a lesser rate than this.  The choices given for Relationship A are written in slope-intercept form, y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept (in this case b = 0).

The slope of the first equation is 18.1; this is less than 18.25.

The slope of the second equation is 18.6; this is greater than 18.25.

The slope of the third equation is 18.3; this is greater than 18.25.

The slope of the fourth equation is 18; this is less than 18.25.
