If 3,8,9 and x are in proportion find the value of x​

Step-by-step explanation:

since they are in continued proportion the ratio will be

3/8=9/x

do cross multiplication

8*9=3*x

72=3x

72/3=x

24=x

therefore x =24

ans is 24

Step-by-step explanation:

soln

the 3 8 9 and x are in proportion

so 3/8=9/x

3x=72

x=72/3

x=24

use an equation of ratios to determine the amount of gas needed to fill the tank.

    0.2             0.8

  =    

288.75             x

                                                              231 gal

so, 0.2x = (0.8)(288.75 gal), and x = = 1155 gal.

                                                                0.2

it would take 1155 gal. to fill the tank.

the cost would be

1155 gal         $3

* = $3465   (answer)

      1           1 gal

hope this you
