Solve the proportion 9/x = 18/5

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

22.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Cross multiply:

9 * 5 = x * 18

Simplifying

9 * 5 = x * 18

Multiply 9 * 5

45 = x * 18

Reorder the terms for easier multiplication:

45 = 18x

Solving

45 = 18x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-18x' to each side of the equation.

45 + -18x = 18x + -18x

Combine like terms: 18x + -18x = 0

45 + -18x = 0

Add '-45' to each side of the equation.

45 + -45 + -18x = 0 + -45

Combine like terms: 45 + -45 = 0

0 + -18x = 0 + -45

-18x = 0 + -45

Combine like terms: 0 + -45 = -45

-18x = -45

Divide each side by '-18'.

x = 2.5

Simplifying

x = 2.5

What are ratio and proportion?

A ratio is a collection of ordered integers a and b represented as a/b, with b never equaling zero. A proportionate expression is one in which two items are equal.

Dedra’s boat used 5 gallons of gasoline in 4 hours.

Then the rate will be

Rate = 5 / 4

Rate = 1.25 gallons per hour

At this rate, then the number of gallons of gasoline the boat uses in 10 hours will be

⇒ 1.25 x 10

⇒ 12.5 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

What is the measurement of b?

21. use Pythagorean theorem
a squared + b squared = c squared
Fill in the blanks so
20 squared + b squared= 29 squared
then you subtract 29 squared from 20 squared to get an answer and then you square root that to get 21

Answer:

21

Step-by-step explanation:

The rule for a right triangle is (x^2)x(y^2)=(z^2)

so 20 squared is 400 and 29 squared is 841.

And since the side with the length 29 is the hypotenuse.

It is 400 + [tex]\sqrt{x}[/tex] = 841

841-400=441

the square root of 441 is 21

The price of an item has risen to $279 today yesterday it was $180 find the percentage increase

Answers

Answer:

99%

Step-by-step explanation:

The percentage increase of the given item is 55.56%.

What is the percentage?

The percentage is defined as a ratio expressed as a fraction of 100.

For example, If Misha obtained a score of 67% on her exam, that corresponds to 67 out of 100. It is expressed as 67/100 in fractional form and as 67:100 in ratio form.

The price of an item has increased to $279 today yesterday it was $180

The percentage increase can be calculated by:

(Current price - Original price) / Original price x 100 = Percentage increase

As per the question, we have to substitute the values to get:

⇒ (279 - 180) / 180 x 100 = 55.56%

Therefore the percentage increase is 55.56%.

Solve the following equation

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

5(3x+5)=3(5x+1)

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

5(3x+5)=3(5x+1)

(5)(3x)+(5)(5)=(3)(5x)+(3)(1)(Distribute)

15x+25=15x+3

Step 2: Subtract 15x from both sides.

15x+25−15x=15x+3−15x

Answer:

1-x-2+2x = 10x-25-x

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is as follows :

1-(x+2)+2x=5(2x-5)-x

We need to solve the above equation.

Firstly opening bracket off LHS and applying distributive property at RHS.

1-x-2+2x=5(2x)-5(5)-x    (Distributive property :a(b+c) = ab+ac)

1-x-2+2x = 10x-25-x

So, the correct option is (B) i.e. 1 minus x minus 2 + 2 x = 10 x minus 25 minus x.

What is the farthest distance the one long hose can reach? 18.65 ft 24.65 ft 34.84 ft 35.65 ft

Answers

Answer:

35.65 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Melanie connected a brown garden hose , a green garden hose and a black garden hose to make one long hose

The brown hose is 10.75 feet

The green hose is 16.4 feet

The black hose is 8.5 feet

Therefore the farthest distance that the one hose can reach can be calculated as follows

= 10.75 + 16.4 + 8.5

= 35.65 feet

Hence the farthest distance that one hose can reach is 35.65 feet

There are 4 squares and 6 circles. What is the simplest ratio of squares to circles?

Answers

Answer:

2 : 3

Step-by-step explanation:

We have 4 squares and 6 circles. We would like the ratio of squares to circles, so we divide 4 by 6:

4 / 6  ⇒  the ratio here would be 4 : 6

We need to simplify this. Notice that both 4 and 6 are divisible by 2. So, we can divide both by 2:

4/2 : 6/2  ⇒  2 : 3

2 and 3 don't share any factors other than 1, so we leave the ratio like this.

The answer is thus 2 : 3.

Megan is buying 168 balloons for a large party. At Jamie's Party Store, balloons are sold in packs of 12 and packs of 36. Costs for each pack are shown. 36 $11.88 12 $5.16 How many packs of 12 and 36 balloons should Megan buy from Jamie's Party Store to spend the least amount of money? Megan should buy packs of 36 balloons, and packs of 12 balloons.

Answers

Answer:

$57.84

Step-by-step explanation:

Balloons needed = 168

Cost of 36 balloons per pack = $11.88

Cost of 12 balloons per pack = $5.16

cost per balloon

36 per pack = $11.88 / 36

= $0.33

12 per pack = $5.16 / 12

= $0.43

In order to minimize cost, she should buy as many packs of 36 per pack balloon

36 per pack × 1 pack = 36

36 per pack × 2 packs = 72

36 per pack × 3 packs = 108

36 per pack × 4 packs = 144

36 per pack × 5 packs = 180

The required number of balloons is 168

So, the number of possible 36 packs to buy is 4, that is, 144 balloons

Balloons remaining = 168 - 144

= 24

Possible packs of 12 balloons per pack possible is

12 per pack × 1 pack = 12

12 per pack × 2 packs = 24

Therefore, Megan needs to buy 4 packs of 36 balloons per pack and 2 packs of 12 balloons per pack

Cost of 4 packs of 36 balloons per pack = 4 × $11.88

= $47.52

Cost of 2 packs of 12 balloons per pack = 2 × $5.16

= $10.32

Total cost = $47.52 + $10.32

= $57.84

If x + 2y = 8, and x - y = 5, what is the value of x?

Answers

Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve y for x + 2y = 8.

x + 2y = 8

2y = -x + 8

y = [tex]-\frac{1}{2}[/tex]x + 4.

Let's solve y for x - y = 5.

x - y = 5

y = x - 5

Since both equations have been solved for y, we can combine them together into one!

x - 5 = [tex]-\frac{1}{2}[/tex]x + 4

x [tex]+ \frac{1}{2}[/tex]x = 4 + 5

1.5x = 9

x = 6
