5-a/8=4/7 solve for a show your work

Mathematics
1 answer:
timama [110]3 years ago
6 0
Subtract 5 from both sides
a/-8 = 4/7 - 5

simplify 4/7 - 5 to 31/-7
a/-8 = 31/-7

multiply both sides by 8 
-a = 31/-7 x 8

simplify 31/7 x 8 to 248/7
-a = 248/7

multiply both sides by -1.
The answer is a = 248/7

2. IQS = 4 and QR is a perpendicular bisector of TS , determined which of the following claims is true
Pavel [41]

Answer:

RS=5 TRUE

RS=4 FALSE (it’s 5)

ST=10 FALSE (it’s 8)

QR=4 FALSE (its 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we have to determine the sides of the triangle.

4x-3=2x+1

4x-2x=1+3

2x=4

x=2

SO, RS=4x-3=4(2)-3=8-3=5

RT=2(x)+1=2(2)+1=5

QR=4²+b²=5².    16+b²=25.    b²=25-16.    b²=9.     b=3

CLAIMS:

RS=5 TRUE

RS=4 FALSE (it’s 5)

ST=10 FALSE (it’s 8)

QR=4 FALSE (its 3)
