Answer:

6 miles

you can turn the problem into the equation

$\frac{1.5}{2} = \frac{x}{8}$

to get 2 to be 8 you need to multiply by 4 so you do the same to the top and get 6

The correct answer is C, 4:5 would be equivalent to 24/30, because 30 divided by 5 is equal to 6, so you would multiply the numerator and denominator by the same number.

Answer:

$B = \frac{1}{2}A$

$A = 2B$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Represent apple with A and Banana with B

Required

Determine the relationship between A and B

From the question, we understand that:

B costs half as much as A

This can be represented as:

$B = \frac{1}{2} * A$

$B = \frac{1}{2}A$

Multiply both sides by 2

$2*B = \frac{1}{2}A*2$

$2B = A$

$A = 2B$
