Answer:

16/15

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the equation;

a−3b/a+b = 3/4

We are required to determine the ratio a+b/a

It will be easier to first determine the value of a/b

  • Using cross multiplication;

a−3b/a+b = 3/4  becomes,

4(a-3b) = 3(a+b)

4a - 12b = 3a + 3b

  • Combining the like terms;

4a - 3a = 3b + 12b

a = 15 b

Thus, a/b = 15/1

Taking a = 15 and b = 1

Then,

a+b/a = (15 + 1)/15

         = 16/15

Therefore, the ratio a+b/a is 16/15

What are the types of roots of the equation below?<br><br>x^4 - 81 = 0​
natali 33 [55]

Answer:

x^4 - 81 = 0  

(x² - 9)(x² + 9) = 0  

Notice that the first of these is itself a difference of two squares:  

(x - 3)(x + 3)(x² + 9) = 0  

So the solutions are x = 3, x = -3, x = 3i, x = -3i

Alinara [238K]
20 total marbles....7 are green

probability on first draw is 7/20...and since the marble was not replaced, the probability on the second draw is 6/19. And since they cant happen at the same time, we multiply

7/20 * 6/19 = 42/380 which reduces to 21/190

12345 [234]

Answer:

Option A) angle bisector

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle Bisector:

  • An angle bisector is a line that divides an angle into two equal parts.
  • The angle bisector divide the angle in two equal parts.
  • An angle bisector is equidistant from the sides of the angle when measured along a segment perpendicular to the sides of the angle.
  • It cuts the angle into half.
  • Thus, a sector can be divided into two equal sectors by drawing an angle bisector.

To divide the sector into two congruent sectors we can use the angle bisector construction.

Thus, the correct answer is

Option A) angle bisector
