You are going on a camping trip with your family for 3 days. You decided that you need 5 batteries for your flashlights. At the very last minute you decide to extend the trip to 9 days. a. Set up a proportion to solve for the amount of batteries you will need for the extended trip.
b. Solve the proportion for part a

15 batteries

Step-by-step explanation:

a. We have

5 batteries = 3 days

5 batteries/3 days = 1

5 batteries/3 days

we need to convert this to 9 days, so

x amount of batteries = 9 days

x batteries / 9 days = 1

5 batteries / 3 days = x batteries / 9 days

b.

5 batteries / 3 days = x batteries / 9 days

multiply both sides by 9 days to get rid of the denominators as well as the days variable

5 batteries * 9 days / 3 days = x batteries

5 batteries * 3 = x batteries

15 batteries = x batteries

x = 15

the answer to question 1 is -8, 28.

step-by-step explanation:

27/4x^6 y^8

step-by-step explanation:

4(3x^2y^4)^3 (2x^3y^5)^4

=

108x^6 y^12 /16x^12 y^20

=

108 /16x^6 y^8

=

27 /4x^6 y^8
