Solve for v.

5/4 = (v - 5)/3

5 answers

To solve for v, we can cross multiply and then isolate v:

5 * 3 = 4 * (v - 5)
15 = 4v - 20
Adding 20 to each side:
35 = 4v

Dividing both sides by 4:
35/4 = v
v = 8.75

Thus, the solution for v is v = 8.75.
Solve for x.
(x + 4)/6 = 5/4
To solve for x, we can cross multiply and then isolate x:

4(x + 4) = 6 * 5
4x + 16 = 30
Subtracting 16 from both sides:
4x = 14

Dividing both sides by 4:
x = 14/4
x = 3.5

Therefore, the solution for x is x = 3.5.
Solve for u.
9/(u - 5) = 3/2
To solve for u, we can cross multiply and then isolate u:

9 * 2 = 3 * (u - 5)
18 = 3u - 15
Adding 15 to each side:
33 = 3u

Dividing both sides by 3:
u = 33/3
u = 11

Therefore, the solution for u is u = 11.
