Let's translate your words into numbers and fractions. So it's
5/4 - 1/x - 2 = -4/-4.
Let's Simplify it first by eliminating -4/-4, the answer will be 1 since negative divided by negative is positive and 4 divided by 4 is 1.

5/4 - 1/x - 2 = 1

Then Get the GCF of the equation which is 4x.
Then divide the whole equation by 4x and it would be, 

<span><u>5/4 - 1/x - 2 = 1
</u></span>        4x

Then it will look like this, 5x-8x-4 = 4x
Then transpose, 5x - 8x - 4x = 4
Simplify by deducting the left side. -7x = 4
Then divide both sides by -7.
Then the final answer would be x = -4/7

What is the slope of a line that passes (4, 10) and (1, 10)
SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

The slope of the a straight line is given by the ratio of the Rise to the Run

of the line. The rise between the given points is zero.

The slope of the line that passes through the points (4, 10) and (1, 10) is zero.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given points are; (4, 10) and (1, 10)

The slope of a line, m, is given by the following formula;

Where;

(x₁, y₁) = (4, 10) and (x₂. y₂) = (1, 10), we get;

The slope of the line that passes through the points (4, 10) and (1, 10) is 0.

A person draws a card from a hat. Each card is one color, with the following probabilities of being drawn: 1/25 for black, 1/5 f
Schach [20]

Step-by-step explanation:

P(black or yellow) = P(black) + P(yellow) − P(black and yellow)

P(black or yellow) = 1/25 + 1/5 − 0

P(black or yellow) = 6/25

Solve for x and y 9/x-4/y=8
borishaifa [10]
You can solve <span>9/x-4/y=8 for x or for y but NOT at the same time.

Solving for x:  </span><span>9/x-4/y=8       Mult all 3 terms by xy to eliminate the fractions.

9(xy)/x - 4xy/y = 8xy         =>       9y - 4x = 8xy, or 9y = 4x + 8xy = 4x(1+2y)

                                                                        then 9y = x [ 4(1+2y) ]
                                                                                     9y
                                                            therefore x = ------------
                                                                                  4(1+2y)

Solve for y using a similar approach.
