Step-by-step explanation:

Denominator =X

Numerator = X-12

Fraction = (X-12)/X

⇛(X-12)/X = 3/5

⇛5(X-12) = 3X

⇛5X-60 = 3X

⇛5X-3X = 60

⇛2X = 60

⇛X = 60/2

⇛X = 30

Denominator = 30

Numerator = 30-12 = 18

The fraction before simplified = 18/30

Find x and y <br><br> pls help
Airida [17]
Answer X=14, Y=55
See diagram
To find X, I know the angles will equal 180
110 + 5x = 180
Subtract 110 from both sides to isolate X
5x = 70, solve for X, divide both sides by 5
X = 14
Do the same for Y
We know the triangle will equal 180
So (5x) is (5x14= 70) and the other angle is 40.
180-40-70 = 70 for the unknown angle in the triangle.
We know the angles in the Y part of the question will equal 180 so
70 + 2y = 180, subtract 70 from both sides to isolate Y
2y = 110, now solve for Y by dividing both sides by 2
Y = 55

Which is the solution set of the compound inequality 3.5 x -10&gt; -3 and 8x -9 &lt;39
aivan3 [116]
3.5x-10>-3  add 10 to both sides

3.5x>13  divide both sides by 3.5

x>26/7

x=(26/7, +oo)

...

8x-9<39  add 9 to both sides

8x<48  divide both sides by 8

x<6

x=(-oo,6)

Since this is a compound inequality with AND the solution set will be the union of the two intervals found above.

x=(26/7, 6)
