Answer:
x = 5.09, -6.09.
Step-by-step explanation:
1/(x-2) - 1/(x+3) = 1/5
Multiply through by the LCM 5(x-2)(x+3):
5(x + 3) - 5(x - 2) = (x - 2)(x + 3)
5x + 15 - 5x + 10 = x^2 + x - 6
x^2 + x - 31 = 0
x = [ -1 +/- sqrt(1 - 1*1*31)] / 2
x = 5.09, -6.09.
Considering the given <em>information</em> in the question, the value of x is
, and that of y is
.
A <u>transversal</u> is a <em>line</em> that <em>cuts</em> through two given parallel lines. Thus it i<em>ntersects</em> each parallel line at a point, forming <u>four</u> angles each.
From the given <em>information</em> in the question, it can be <em>inferred</em> that:
the given<u> bottom</u> right angle of the first<em> intersection</em> and the bottom right angle with the <em>second intersection</em> are <u>congruent </u>(corresponding angle property).
So that,
= 
=
- 
=
............ 1
Also given that the top <em>right angle</em> at the<u> second</u> intersection is a <em>right </em>angle, then;
+
=
(sum of angles on a straight line)
This implies that;
=
- 
= 
So that,
y = 
y = 
Thus substituting the value of y in equation 1, we have;
=
........ 1
= 8(7.5)
5x = 60
x = 
x = 
Therefore, x =
and y =
