By cross multiplication,

→72 \times 8 = x \times 64

→576 = x \times 64

→ \frac{576}{64} = x

By division,

→9 = x

Which is the equation for ---
ratelena [41]
Equation of the line: 
y=mx+b
Ordinate at the origin (where the line cut the y-axis): b=1

B=(-5,5)=(xb,yb)→xb=-5, yb=5
C=(0,1)=(xc,yc)→xc=0, yc=1
m=(yc-yb)/(xc-xb)
m=(1-5)/(0-(-5))
m=(-4)/(0+5)
m=(-4)/(5)
m=-(4/5)

y=mx+b
y=-(4/5)x+1
Multiplying the equation by 5:
5[y=-(4/5)x+1]
5y=-4x+5
Adding 4x both sides of the equation:
5y+4x=-4x+5+4x
4x+5y=5

Answer: The equation for BC is: Third option 4x+5y=5

How to use it?

Example question: If there are 3 boys for every 4 girls and there are 27 boys in the class, how many girls are there?

How to set up the ratio:

3 27
— = —
4 x


Solve it?

[Cross Multiply]

3x= 108

[Divide]

X= 36

How to check it?

Reduce 27/36 and see if it equals 3/4

OR

Plug both into the calculator and both should come out with the same decimal. In this case it is 0.75

There are 120 people on the bus 50% get off at the first stop 20% get off at the second stop. The rest get off on the third stop
erastova [34]

Answer:

48 people

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find how many were left after the first stop:

120(0.5)

= 60

Find how many were left after the second stop:

60(0.8)

= 48

So, since the rest got off on the third stop, this means 48 people got off on the third stop.
