Divide 15 in the ratio 3:2

Mathematics
1 answer:
STatiana [176]3 years ago
7 0
One way of approaching this would be to add up 3 and 2, obtaining 5, and then multiplying 15 by 3/5:

15(3/5) = 9

Then write and solve the equation of ratios:

3        9
-- = ------
2         x

Then 3x=18, and x=6.  Thus, 15 divides into 9 and 6, which has the ratio 3:2.

Which of the following is a solution of x2 + 4x = −8?
Vladimir [108]
x^{2}+4x = -8
\\\\
x^{2}+4x+8 = 0
\\\\
\Delta = b^{2}-4ac
\\\\
\Delta = (4)^{2}-4 \cdot (1) \cdot (8)
\\\\
\Delta = 16-32
\\\\
\Delta = -16

There's no solution in the set of real numbers.

\boxed{S = \{ \ \ \}}

katrin [286]

Answer:

∠2 and ∠4 are the supplementary angle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Shelves of the bookcase are parallel and a transversal line is intersecting these points at two distinct points.

By the property,

Sum of two interior consecutive angles measure 180°.

From the figure attached,

∠2 and ∠4 are the interior consecutive angles.

Therefore, m∠2 + m∠4 = 180°

Which proves that shelves of the showcase are parallel.
