v/5 =(v+6)/8

\frac{v}{5} = \frac{v + 6}{8}

v = 10

Solution steps

\frac{v}{5} = \frac{v + 6}{8}

Apply fraction cross multiply: if

\frac{a}{b} = \frac{c}{d}

then

a \cdot d = b \cdot c

v \cdot 8 = 5 (v + 6)

Expand

5 (v + 6) : 5 v + 30

v \cdot 8 = 5 v + 30

Move

5 v

to the left side

3 v = 30

Divide both sides by

3

v = 10

x, y - 2 = 7 (x - 1)

x, - 2 x + 2 y = 0

x, 7 x - 3 y - 10 = 0

3 x = \frac{4 x - 6}{2}

x = \frac{1}{2}
