the complete question is

If we add 5 to the denominator And subtract 5 from the numerator of a fraction ot reduces to 1/7. if we subtract 3 from the numerator and add 3 to its denominator ot reduces to 1/3. find the fraction.


Let

x/y-----------> the fraction


we know that

(x-5)/(y+5)=1/7------>7*(x-5)=(y+5)-----> y=7x-35-5----> y=7x-40----> equation 1

(x-3)/(y+3)=1/3----> 3*(x-3)=y+3----> y=3x-9-3----> y=3x-12------> equation 2


equate equation 1 and equation 2

7x-40=3x-12-----> 7x-3x=40-12------> 4x=28-----> x=7


y=3x-12------> y=3*7-12-----> y=9

x/y=7/9


the answer is

the fraction is 7/9

BRAINLIEST.In which quadrant does the point (-5, 21) lie?
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

Point (-5,21) would end up in quadrant II (2).

Step-by-step explanation:

It would end up in quadrant 2 because x=-5 which means it would go left.

y=21 which means it would go up.

Because of this, the point would end up in the top left of the graph which is quadrant 2.

16. Juice You bought 12 1-gallon bottles of apple and orange juice for a
const2013 [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let x be apple juice and y be orange juice

12 = x + y

x = 12 - y


15 = 1x + 1.5y

x = 15 - 1.5y

set the equations as equal

12 - y = 15 - 1.5y

solve for y

12 + .5y = 15

.5y = 3

y = 6,  you bought 6 bottles of orange juice

so, 12 = x + 6 , x = 6 , you bought 6 bottles of apple juice
