3 0

<u>Answer:</u>

  • 6. 6.75
  • 7. 27
  • 8. 92/17
  • 9. 49

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

<u>- Question 6 -</u>

  • 9/16 = x/12
  • => 16x = 12 x 9
  • => 16x = 108
  • => x = 6.75

Hence, <u>the value of x in this proportion is 6.75.</u>

<h3>_______________________________</h3>

<u>- Question 7 -</u>

  • -3 + x/18 = 12/9
  • => -3/18 + x/18 = 4/3
  • => x/18 = 4/3 + 1/6
  • => x/18 = 8/6 + 1/6
  • => x/18 = 9/6
  • => x = 9/6 x 18
  • => x = 27

Hence, <u>the value of x is 27</u>

<h3>_______________________________</h3>

<u>- Question 8 -</u>

17/15 = 10/2x - 2

=> 17(2x - 2) = 150

=> 34x - 34 = 150

=> 34x = 184

=> x = 184/34

=> x = 92/17

Hence, <u>the value of x is 92/17</u>

<h3>_______________________________</h3>

<u>- Question 9 -</u>

  • x - 16/x + 6 = 3/5
  • => 5(x - 16) = 3(x + 6)
  • => 5x - 80 = 3x + 18
  • => 2x = 98
  • => x = 49

Hence, <u>the value of x is 49.</u>

Evaluate the following expression. Express your answer in simplest form. 3/16 + 5/8 × 1/2​
miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to follow the order of operations. Since there are no parenthesis or exponents, we do multiplication first. to multiple fractions, we multiply the two numerators (top parts), which in this situation would get us 5*1=5. Then, we multiply the two denominators (bottom parts), which would get us 8*2=16. then we put the first result over the second, and we get 5/16. since the two denominators are the same, we don't need to change anything. we can just add the numerator, and get 8/16, which simplifies to 1/2.

Jill has $1.25 in her pocket. The money is in quarters and dimes. There are a total of 8 coins. How many quarters and dimes does
erica [24]

Answer:

  • 3 quarters
  • 5 dimes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let q represent the number of quarters (the higher-value coin). Then 8-q is the number of dimes, and Jill's total amount in change is ...

  0.25q +0.10(8-q) = 1.25

  0.15q + 0.80 = 1.25 . . . . . . . eliminate parentheses

  0.15q = 0.45 . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 0.80

  q = 3 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 0.15

  the number of dimes is 8-q = 8-3 = 5.

Jill has 3 quarters and 5 dimes.

The following blank indicates a missing operation in the equation.
Natalija [7]
The answer would be 5/2q+9r+6r-20s

Explanation
We have the equation
5(1/2q+3r-4s)
which would equal
5/2q+15r-20s

so with the information
We can subtract 6r from 15r to get 9r
15r-6r=9r
+9r would be the missing piece

So we substitute it in to make the equation true.
5/2q(+9r)+6r-20s
