8 0

Hello :
let the slope : a and ; b the slope of the line : 6x - 3y = 2
<span>the line that is perpendicular to 6x-3y=2 so : a×b = - 1
but :
6x - 3y = 2... y = 2x-2/3 when : b = 2
</span><span> in point - form form of the equation of the line that is perpendicular
to 6x-3y=2 is : y = (-1/2)x +c
</span>contains (5,1) : 1 = (-1/2)(5) +c
c = 7/2
an equation is : y= (-1/2)x +7/2

The denominator of a fraction in simplest form is greater than the numerator by 3. If 7 is added to the numerator, and 5 added

jok3333 [9.3K]

So.. if we take the numerator to be say "a", then the denominator will be "a+3"

$\bf \cfrac{a}{a+3}\textit{ if we add }\frac{1}{2}\textit{ we get then }\cfrac{a+7}{a+3+5}
\\\\\\
thus\implies \cfrac{a}{a+3}+\cfrac{1}{2}=\cfrac{a+7}{a+8}\\\\
-----------------------------\\\\
\cfrac{a+3+2a}{2(a+3)}=\cfrac{a+7}{a+8}\implies \cfrac{3a+3}{2a+6}=\cfrac{a+7}{a+8}
\\\\\\
3a^2+24a+3a+24=2a^2+14a+6a+42
\\\\\\
a^2+7a-18=0\implies (a+9)(a-2)=0
\\\\\\
a=
\begin{cases}
2\implies &\frac{2}{5}\\\\
-9\implies &\frac{3}{2}
\end{cases}$

either of those two fractions will do
