Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:

b = 2/3


a = 7/3
b)

Cross multiply,
2b + 1 = a*(3b - 1)
2b + 1 = a*3b - 3*a
2b + 1 = 3ab- 3a
2b = 3ab - 3a - 1
2b - 3ab = -3a - 1
b(2 - 3a) = -3a - 1

Answer:
x = -180
Step-by-step explanation:
0 = 0.65x + 117
-117 = 65x/100
cross-multiply to solve for 'x':
65x = -11700
x = -11700/65
x = -180
I had to answer a question similar to that one on Math XL. This question was about renting a truck instead of needing a 48 mile taxi. (Took me a long time just to find the truck question, but I am giving you the truck help me answer the question, in hopes that it will help you.)
The cost of renting a truck from Hamilton Auto Rental is $47.60 per day plus $0.15 per mile. The expression 47.60 plus 0.15 m represents the cost of renting a truck for one day and driving it m miles. Evaluate 47.60 plus 0.15 m for m equals 120.
Substitute the numerical value for each variable into the expression and simplify the result.
I am sorry if that didn't help you, but it was the closest thing I could find to use to help you.
