Let the two numbers be x and y
x + y = 5(x-y)
x + y = 5x -5y
6y = 4x
x= (6/4)y
x= (3/2)y
there the ratio is 3/2
$3
its like a pack of 12 magazines costing $36 and you asked the cost of one magazine
by proportion; let average be=?
12~$36
1~?
1/12=?/36
?=(1/12)*36
?=3=average
It is 3/12 and when you reduce it, it become 1/4
Answer:
20x - 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have the length and height of the rectangle we just multiply each by 2. This is because the length is the same on both sides and the height is too. The equation would look like this:
(5x-4 + 5x -4) + (5x +5x) = 10x -8 + 10 x = 20x -8
