<h2><u>
PROPORTIONAL EQUATION</u></h2><h3>Exercise</h3>
Apply the means-extremes property of proportions: this allows you to cross multiply:


Apply the distributive property:



Add 24 to both sides:


Substract 3x to both sides



<h3><u>Answer</u>. The value of x = 24.</h3>
X + y = 23000
x.08 + y.09 = 2040
x = 23000 - y
(23000 - y) .08 + y.09 = 2040
1840 - .08y + .09y = 2040
Simplify
.01y = 200
Simplify
Y = 20000
X + 20000 = 23000
X = 3000
CHECK: .08x + .09(20000) = 2040
.08x + 1800 = 2040
Simply .08x = 240
X = 3000
Answer:
when both bottom numbers on a fraction are the same at the lowest form
Step-by-step explanation:
example: 2/4 + 6/8 the common denomenator is 8 as both numbers go into it and you only have to times by 2 so answer would be 10/8 which is also 1 2/8
We know that
applying the law of cosines
a² = b²+ c²<span> – 2*b*c*cos(A)
</span>
in this problem
a=?
b=20
c=9
A=90°
so
a² = b²+ c² – 2*b*c*cos(A)
but
cos (A)=0
a² = b²+ c²-----> 20²+9²----> a²=400+81----> a²=481-----> a=√481
a=21.93-----> a=22
the answer is
22
