X - the fraction

17- 12x=\frac{1}{3} \times 17+6 \\
17-12x=\frac{17}{3}+6 \\
-12x=\frac{17}{3}+6-17 \\
-12x=\frac{17}{3}-11 \\
-12x=\frac{17}{3}-\frac{33}{3} \\
-12x=-\frac{16}{3} \\
x=-\frac{16}{3} \times (-\frac{1}{12}) \\
x=\frac{16}{36} \\
x=\frac{4}{9}

The fraction is 4/9.

In triangle RG shown below. m 63 and m 30 Which of the following is the<br> 63
Tatiana [17]

Answer:

The value of the hypotenuse is 69.77 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine, in triangle RG, the value of its hypotenuse if its sides measure 63 meters and 30 meters, the following calculation must be performed, applying the Pythagorean theorem:

63 ^ 2 + 30 ^ 2 = X ^ 2

3969 + 900 = X ^ 2

√ 4869 = X

69.77 = X

Therefore, the value of the hypotenuse is 69.77 meters.

The price of a fan is $15. This price is 27% lower than last week.
Goshia [24]

The price of fan was 20 Dollars 55 cents last week.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

The price last week = x

As the price is 27% lower than last week, therefore

(100%-27%) * Price last week = $15

73% * x = 15

Solving the percentage;

\frac{73}{100}*x=15\\ Multiplying\ both\ sides\ by\ 100\\100*\frac{73x}{100} = 15*100\\73x=1500\\Dividing\ both\ sides\ by\ 73\\\frac{73x}{73} = \frac{1500}{73} \\x= 20.55

The price of fan was 20 Dollars 55 cents last week.
