Last month maria high the 5 mile Mountain Trail a number of times and she hiked the 10 mile canal trail several times. Let X rep
Marrrta [24]

Alright, lets get started.

Maria hiked the 5 mile Mountain Trail a number of times and she hiked the 10 mile canal trail several times.

x times she hiked 5 mile mountain.

So, number of mils she hiked for 5 miles will be = 5 x

Similarly,

y times she hiked 10 mile canal,

So, number of miles she hiked for canal = 10 y

So, total number of miles she hiked = 5 x +10 y

But as per question given,  she had a total of 90 miles

It means

5x + 10 y = 90

Dividing this equation with 5

x + 2 y = 18

So, the equation is x + 2 y = 18 :   Answer

Hope it will help :)

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

The trick here is to reduce each of the bases to lowest form first

12 = 3.4 = 3 .2.2  = 3.2^{2}\\12^{3}  = (3.2^{2} )^{3} = 3^{3}2^{6}  \\6 = 3.2\\6^{5} = (3.2)^{5} = 3^{5} .2^{5} \\\\Numerator = 3^32^63^52^5 = 3^82^{11}\\Denominator computation\\9 = 3^2\\9^{4} = (3^{2} )^4 = 3^{8} \\Denominator = 3^82^{10} \\\\\frac{Numerator}{Denominator }  =\frac{{3^8}{2^{11} }}{3^82^{10}} = \frac{2^{11}} {2^{10}} = 2^1 = 2

How can using equivalent ratios help you operate a business?
never [62]
Hi there

Using equivalent ratios to help operate a business is useful for financial ratios.
There are common size ratios, liquidity ratios, efficiency ratios, and solvency ratios. 

Ratios are used to let us compare one item to another. (For example, comparing 1 teacher to 25 students, or 1:25)

Did you have any answers to chose from? I just figured I'd provide you with what I knew about this subject to help in case there were no options to chose from.
