5x•8y
5•8=x•y
40=x•y
5•40•8•40=

Please help me out with this so I can keep my kitten.

Answer:

$y = \frac{32}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, move over the negative 3/4 fraction (don't forget to swap the operation i.e subtract to add):

$\frac{y}{8} = \frac{7}{12} + \frac{3}{4}$

Now, to add the two fractions, simply multiply the numerator and denominator by 3:

$\frac{3*3}{4*3} = \frac{9}{12}$

Now add this to the other fraction:

$\frac{9}{12} + \frac{7}{12} = \frac{16}{12}$

This can be simplified down by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 4:

$\frac{4}{3}$

Which now simplifies the original equation to:

$\frac{y}{8} = \frac{4}{3}$

Remove the y out of the fraction:

$\frac{1}{8}y = \frac{4}{3}$

Now multiply both sides by 8:

$(\frac{1}{8}y) * 8 = (\frac{4}{3}) * 8$

$y = \frac{4*8}{3}$

$y = \frac{32}{3}$

Hope this helps!

This answer is A, first you subtract 3x from both sides simplify 8x-9-3x to 5x-9, add 9 to both sides, simplify 4+9 to 13, divided both sides by 5 and you’ll get 2.6

An airplane travels 290 km between Austin and Dallas in 1 h 15 min. What is it’s average speed?

aniked [119]

The average speed of the plane between Austin and Dallas is 232 kmph

Solution:

Given that,

Total distance traveled by airplane = 290 km

Time taken for travel between Austin and Dallas = 1 hour 15 minute

Let us convert the time taken to hours

$\begin{array}{l}{1 \text { minute }=\frac{1}{60} \text { hours }} \\\\ {15 \text { minutes }=\frac{15}{60}=\frac{1}{4}} \\\\ {\text { 1 hour } 15 \text { minutes }=1 \frac{1}{4} \text { hours }=\frac{1 \times 4+1}{4}=\frac{5}{4} \text { hours }}\end{array}$
