Answer:

No, Sue read 1/3 more than Jack did.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to compare two fractions, be sure that they have the same denominator. To give them the same denominator, multiply the top and bottom of Sue's fraction by 2. This will give you them both over 6.

Sue: 4/6

Jack: 2/6

Plz help and show how you did the math question
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

x =  - 3

y =  - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Since y=x+1 plug it into bottom equation as y.

x + 1= 5x + 13

Subtract 1 from both sides

x = 5x + 12

Subtract 5x from both sides

- 4x = 12

Divide both sides by -4

x =  - 3

Now x=-3 into the top equation to find y

- 3 + 1 =  - 2

y=-2

Given:
oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

9 units

Step-by-step explanation:

By the midsegment theorem,

AB=\dfrac{KN+LM}{2}

Since the ratio LM:KN=1:5, then LM=x,\ KN=5x and

18=\dfrac{x+5x}{2}\\ \\18=\dfrac{6x}{2}\\ \\18=3x\\ \\x=6\\ \\LM=6\ units\\ \\KN=30\ units

Draw two heights LE and MF. Quadrilateral ELMF is a rectangle, then EF = LM = 6 units.

Trapezoid KLMN is isosceles trapezoid (KL = MN), then KE = FN and

KE=FN=\dfrac{KN-EF}{2}=\dfrac{30-6}{2}=12\ units

Consider right triangle KLE. By the Pythagorean theorem,

KL^2=LE^2+KE^2\\ \\15^2=LE^2+12^2\\ \\LE^2=15^2-12^2\\ \\LE^2=225-144=81\\ \\LE=9\ units

<span>This is the equation made from the problem where x=mystery number
</span><span>2x+3(x+1)=4(x-1)</span><span>

</span><span>Now let's solve for x!
</span><span>
</span><span>We start by distributing 3 into (X+1)
</span><span>
</span><span>3(x)=3x  and 3(1)=3
</span><span>
</span><span>Now our equation is 2x+3x+3=4(x-1)
</span><span>
</span><span>Let's combine both x values on the left side of the equation: 2x + 3x=5x
</span><span>
</span><span>We now have 5x+3=4(x-1)
</span><span>
</span><span>Let's distribute 4 into (x-1)
</span><span>
</span><span>4(x)=4x  and 4(-1)=-4
</span><span>
</span><span>Now our equation is 5x+3=4x-4
</span><span>
</span><span>subtract 3 form both sides
</span><span>
</span><span>5x=4x-7
</span><span>
</span><span>subtract 4x from both sides

</span><span>Yay! So the number she is thinking of is -7!</span><span>
