Answer: the width of the frame is 3 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the width of the frame.

If the length of the mirror is 10 inches, the length of the mirror and the frame would be (x + 10) inches

If the width of the mirror is 7 inches, the width of the mirror and the frame would be (x + 7) inches

The mirror and frame together cover an area of 130 inches squared. This means that

(x + 10)(x + 7) = 130

x² + 7x + 10x + 70 = 130

x² + 17x + 70 - 130 = 0

x² + 17x - 60 = 0

x² + 20x - 3x - 60 = 0

x(x + 20) - 3(x + 20) = 0

x - 3 = 0 or x + 20 = 0

x = 3 or x = - 20

Since the width cannot be negative, then x = 3

What is T In the equation 3/7+t=20/21
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

\large\boxed{t=\dfrac{11}{21}}

Step-by-step explanation:

\dfrac{3}{7}+t=\dfrac{20}{21}\qquad\text{subtract}\ \dfrac{3}{7}\ \text{from both sides}\\\\\dfrac{3}{7}-\dfrac{3}{7}+t=\dfrac{20}{21}-\dfrac{3}{7}\qquad\text{LCD(7, 21)=21}\\\\t=\dfrac{20}{21}-\dfrac{3\cdot3}{7\cdot3}\\\\t=\dfrac{20}{21}-\dfrac{9}{21}\\\\t=\dfrac{20-9}{21}\\\\t=\dfrac{11}{21}

Mention the commutativity associative and distributive properties of rational number
evablogger [386]

Answer:

Associative property: a + (b + c), a – (b – c) ≠ (a – b) – c, a × (b × c) = (a × b) × c, and a ÷ (b ÷ c) ≠ (a ÷ b) ÷ c

When a = ½ and b = ¾

Now, for checking a × b = b × a, consider LHS and RHS.

LHS = a × b = ½ × ¾ = ⅜

RHS = b × a = ¾ × ½ = ⅜

Thus, LHS = RHS (Hence proved)
