Why are the solutions to the proportions 40/8=x/10 and x/40=10/8 the same? A because both result in the equation 8 x = 400, which simplifies to x = 5
B because both result in the equation 8 x = 400, which simplifies to x = 50
C because both result in the equation 40 x = 80, which simplifies to x = 2
D because both result in the equation 40 x = 80, which simplifies to x = 20

answer: there are x+184 pages in olivia's book.

step-by-step explanation:

let the total number of pages in the book which olive has already read be x.

then if olive has 184 pages left to read, then the total number of pages are in olive's book= pages she has read+pages she has left to read

therefore, the total number of pages in olivia's book=

hence, there are x+184 pages in olivia's book.
