Answer:

\frac{29}{58}

Step-by-step explanation:

let x be the numerator of the rational number then 2x is the denominator

original fraction = \frac{x}{2x}

subtracting 3 from numerator and adding 7 to denominator , gives

\frac{x-3}{2x+7} = \frac{2}{5} ( cross- multiply )

5(x - 3) = 2(2x + 7) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides )

5x - 15 = 4x + 14 ( subtract 4x from both sides )

x - 15 = 14 ( add 15 to both sides )

x = 29

rational number = \frac{29}{58}

Answer:

C) 6 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram is shown in the attachment.

Using the Pythagoras Theorem,

x^2=4^2+4^2

x^2=16+16

x^2=32

We take positive square root to obtain

x=\sqrt{32}

x=4\sqrt{2}

x=5.66ft

Rounding to the nearest feet we have x=6ft
