6/4=x/18 what is the answer to this question or proportion

2 answers:

8 0

6/4 = x/18
cross multiply
(4)(x) = (6)(18)
4x = 108
x = 108/4
x = 27 <==

and notice that 6/4 and 27/18 both reduce to 3/2 because these are equivalent fractions and proportions are nothing but equivalent fractions

A linear function is graphed below.

Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

$-1\frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have two coordinate points and are asked to find a slope.

When finding slope, we can use the formula listed :

$\frac{y^2-y^1}{x^2-x^1}}$

To understand what the variables are, you can take this :

$(x^1,y^1)$

$(x^2,y^2)$

Substitute the points :

$(-1,4)$

$(5,-5)$

Now substitute it into the formula :

$\frac{-5-4}{5-(-1)}$

$\frac{-3}{2}$

$-1\frac{1}{2}$
