Answer:

\boxed{\sf{{x=\dfrac{8}{5}=1.6}}}

Step-by-step explanation:

All you have to do to solve this is isolate the term of x from one side of the equation.

\sf{\dfrac{x}{4}=\dfrac{2}{5}  }

First, you multiply by 4 from both sides.

\sf{\dfrac{4x}{4}=\dfrac{2*4}{5}  }

Then, solve.

\sf{2*4=8}

\sf{=\dfrac{8}{5} }

Also, you can divide.

<u>8/5=1.6</u>

<u></u>

Therefore, the answer is 8/5=1.6

I hope this helps! Let me know if my answer is wrong or not.

An architect designs a rectangular flower garden such that the width is exactly​ two-thirds of the length. If 390 feet of antiqu
Ksenya-84 [330]

Length (L): L

width (w): (2/3)L

Perimeter (P) = 2L + 2w

               390 = 2(L) + 2(2/3)(L)

               1170 = 6L + 4L

               1170 = 10L

                  117 = L

width (w): (2/3)L   = (2/3)(117) = 2(39)   = 78

Answer: width = 78 ft, length = 117 ft

A rectangular carpet has a perimeter of 274 inches. The length of the carpet is 95 inches more than the width. What are the dime
GrogVix [38]

Answer:

Length: 116

Width: 21

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say that the width of carpet is x. If the length of the carpet is 95 inches more than the width, then let's say that the width is x + 95.

Since we are solving for the perimeter, you have to multiply the width and the length(x and x + 95) by two.

So,

2x + 2x + 190 = 274.

Simplify this and you get:

4x= 274 - 190

4x = 84

x= 21

So, the width is 21. This means that the length is 21 + 95.

21 + 95 = 116
