Five crates hold 20 pounds of materials. jen set up this problem to find how many pounds of materials one crate holds: 5/20 = 1/x which of the following best describes how jen will continue to solve the problem? cross multiply, 5x = 20 cross add, 5 + x = 21 multiply across, 5 = 20x add across, 6 = 20x

After setting up the two ratios as a proportion, cross multiply to find the value of x.

Cross multiply, 5x = 20

here you hope this .

step-by-step explanation:

hypotenuse = √(15² + 8²)

=  √(225 +64)

=  √(289) = 17

sin(x) = cos(y) = 8/17

they are identical so long as you are doing the sine of one angle and the cosine of the only other angle that isn't the right angle.

step-by-step explanation:

the multiplicative inverse of a fraction a/b is b/a. for the multiplicative inverse of a real number, divide 1 by the number. for example, the reciprocal of 5 is one fifth 1/5 or 0.2, and the reciprocal of 0.25 is 1 divided by 0.25, or 4.
