Solve for x: 3/4x+5/8=4x

So, you have 3/4x + 5/8 = 4x. We can do this in two ways. Since fractions are harder to deal with, we can turn the fractions into whole numbers.

First we need to find the LCD (Least Common Denominator) between 4 and 8, which is 8. So multiply the 3/4x by 2/2, which gives you an equivalent fraction of 6/8x.

So now we have 6/8x + 5/8 = 4x. Now multiply both sides by 8, to get rid of the denominators of the fractions. That gives us 6x + 5 = 32x. Now use the subtraction property of equality to subtract 6x from both sides giving us 5 = 26x. 

Now you can use the division property of equality to divide 26 on both sides, which gives us x = 5/26.

Hope this helps. :D Feel free to ask any other questions, and if you have any questions about my explanation, don't hesitate to ask.

What is 3y+5x=-15 written in slope-intercept form
Kipish [7]
Slope-intercept form is y=mx+b, so we simply have to solve for y...

3y+5x=-15  subtract 5x from both sides

3y=-5x-15  divide both sides by 3

y=-5x/3-5  or more neatly in my opinion...

y=(-5x-15)/3

Complete the steps, which describe how to find the area of the shaded portion of the circle. 1. Find the area of the sector by m
Serggg [28]

The area of the sector is found by multiplying the area of the circle and the ratio of the angle subtended (measure of the central angle) by the sector to 360.

<h3>How to find the area of a sector?</h3>

1) The formula for area of a sector of a circle is;

A = (θ/360) * πr²

where πr² is area of circle

θ is the angle subtended by the sector

Thus, we conclude that the area of the sector is found by multiplying the area of the circle and the ratio of the angle subtended (measure of the central angle) by the sector to 360.

2) The area of the triangle formed as part of the segment is subtracted from from the area of the sector.

How do you tell if it's possible to make a triangle out of these side lengths?<br> PLZ HELP!!!!!
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

square root of 73 is about 8.5

square root of 10 is about 3. multiply by 3, you get 9.

square root of 7 is about 2.6. multiply by 5, you get 13.

when determining if you can make a triangle, if all variants of two sides can add up to be greater than the third side, you can make the triangle. so 8.5+9 > 13; 13+9 > 8.5; 13+8.5 > 9. this means it can make a triangle and all you have to do is order the sides.

8.5 is smallest which corresponds to angle c because it's opposite. 9 goes to angle a, then finally 13 goes to angle b. thus, angles c, a, b is the order.

side note: the smallest side length will always correspond with the smallest angle.

hope this helps :)
