Answer:

x = 7.5

Step-by-step explanation:

A line parallel to a side of a triangle and intersecting the other 2 sides, divides those sides proportionally, that is

\frac{8}{10} = \frac{6}{x} ( cross- multiply )

8x = 60 ( divide both sides by 8 )

x = \frac{60}{8} = 7.5

Which is greater, less than, or equal to. 6 pints is _______ 60 fluid ounces
Liono4ka [1.6K]
The answer is 6 pints equal to more than 60 fluid ounces

1 pint = 16 ounces.
6 pints = x

Use the proportion:
1 pint : 16 ounces = 6 pints : x
x = 16 ounces * 6 pints : 1 pint
x = 96 ounces

6 pints = 96 ounces > 60 ounces
Therefore, 6 pints equal to more than 60 fluid ounces

A video game system costs $185 and one video game costs $14.95. You can spend no more than $280 on the system and games. set up
disa [49]

Answer:

Therefore the maximum number of video games that we can purchase  

is 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

i) Let us say the number of video game system we can buy that costs $185

 is x and the number of video games of cost $14.95 is y.

ii) The total amount we can spend on the purchase of the video game

   system is $280.

iii) Now with the amount of $280 mentioned in ii) we can see that the

   number  of game systems that can be bought is 1.

 Therefore x = 1.

 Therefore the equation we can write to equate the number of video

  games  and video game system is given by $185 + $14.95 × y ≤ 280

  Therefore 14.95 × y ≤ 280 - 185 = 95

  Therefore y ≤   95 ÷ 14.95 = 6.355

  Therefore the maximum number of video games that we can purchase  

   is 6.
