Answer:

10.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Cross-multiply.

  • [tex]8 * v = 5 * 17[/tex]
  • [tex]8v = 85[/tex]

Step 2: Divide both sides by 8.

  • [tex]\frac{8v}{8} = \frac{85}{8}[/tex]
  • [tex]v = \frac{85}{8}[/tex]
  • [tex]v = 10\frac{5}{8}[/tex]
  • [tex]v = 10.625[/tex]

Step 3: Round to the nearest tenth.

  • [tex]10.625[/tex] ≈ [tex]10.6[/tex]
  • [tex]v = 10.6[/tex]

Therefore, the answer is 10.6.
