To reduce a fraction, divide the numerator and the denominator equally until they reach the simplest whole number possible.
In this case, the numerator (720) and the denominator (1080) can both be divided by 360 to get 2/3, our reduced fraction.
Answer:
53/5
Step-by-step explanation:
since 10 is the denominator of the denominator we can move it to the numerator, giving us 10n/5-3n = 1/5
multiply all sides by 5-3n, giving us 10n = (5-3n)/5
now multiply by 5 to get rid of the final denomintor, 50n = 5-3n
move 3n to the other side 53n = 5, n = 53/5
Since the triangles are similar, all sides are proportional by the same scale factor.
The relationship between the bases 32 and 8 is 4 (32/8 = 4). This means that the smaller triangle need to be multiplied by a scale factor 4 to result in the bigger triangle.
This means that 4x + 12 is 4 times greater than 15.
The equation to solve for x can be written as:
4x + 12 = 4*15
Now just solve for x as u normally would
4x + 12 = 60
(Subtract twelve from both sides)
4x = 48
(Divide both sides by 4 to isolate x)
x = 12
I hope this somewhat helped :)
Was my explanation clear enough?
You have to find slope which is Y=MX+B so it would be m as slope so u then solve
