Answer:

The answer is x=a^{-1}cb^{-1}.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, it is important to recall that the group law is not commutative in general, so we cannot assume it here. In order to solve the exercise we need to remember the axioms of group, specially the existence of the inverse element, i.e., for each element g\in G there exist another element, denoted by g^{-1} such that gg^{-1}=e, where e stands for the identity element of G.

So, given the equality axb=c we make a left multiplication by a^{-1} and we obtain:

a^{-1}axb =a^{-1}c.

But, a^{-1}axb = exb = xb. Hence, xb = a^{-1}c.

Now, in the equality xb = a^{-1}c we make a right multiplication by b^{-1}, and we obtain

xbb^{-1} = a^{-1}cb^{-1}.

Recall that bb^{-1}=e and xe=x. Therefore,

x=a^{-1}cb^{-1}.

Lines c and d are parallel lines cut by transversal p.
lilavasa [31]

Answer:

Option (B).

Step-by-step explanation:

Here there are two parallel lines c and d cuts by a transversal p.

The angles are formed as shown in diagram.

Here,

\angle 1 = \angle 7 (alternate)\\\\\angle 2 = \angle 6 (corresponding)\\\\\angle 3 = \angle 5 (alternate)\\\\\angle 5 = \angle 7 (alternate)

So, the option (B) is correct.

8d + 1 = 5d + 10 can someone please explain how to solve this?

<span>
Add '-1' to each side of the equation. 1 + -1 + 3d = 10 + -1 Combine like terms: 1 + -1 = 0 0 + 3d = 10 + -1 3d = 10 + -1                                                                      

Combine like terms: 10 + -1 = 9 3d = 9

Divide each side by '3'. d = 3 Simplifying
