OpenStudy (faiqraees):

15 and 3 are in ration and 8x+2 and 4 are in ratio

OpenStudy (fluttershyk):

yeah @FaiqRaees is right im going to let him have this one

OpenStudy (shaleiah):

x=6?

OpenStudy (fortytherapper):

Looks good to me

OpenStudy (faiqraees):

no x =6

OpenStudy (dinamix):

@shaleiah yup its x=6

OpenStudy (fluttershyk):

yeah that's what I thought originally that x=6 but I wasn't sure so I didn't want u to get it wrong

OpenStudy (dinamix):

\[\frac{ 8+2x }{ 15 }=\frac{ 4 }{ 3 }\] \[8+2x=20\]\[x=\frac{ 20-8 }{ 2 }=\frac{ 12 }{ 2 }=6\]

OpenStudy (dinamix):

@shaleiah

OpenStudy (shaleiah):

Thank you, everyone!

OpenStudy (shaleiah):

@dinamix

OpenStudy (shaleiah):

OpenStudy (dinamix):

what your answer first ?

OpenStudy (dinamix):

@shaleiah

OpenStudy (shaleiah):

\[\frac{ x-6 }{ 8 }=\frac{ 9 }{ 3 }\]

OpenStudy (dinamix):

not like that @shaleiah

OpenStudy (dinamix):

hmm u are still confusing little @shaleiah

OpenStudy (fortytherapper):

Good idea to set up the proportion, there's just one value we need to find

OpenStudy (dinamix):

still not like that

OpenStudy (dinamix):

@shaleiah but \[\frac{ x-6 }{ 3 } = \frac{ 8 }{ 6 }\]

OpenStudy (shaleiah):

you're right.

OpenStudy (shaleiah):

x=10
