Answer:
when you have two fractions that equal each other you want to solve by using cross multiply
What cross multiply is, is when you multiply diagonally so:
8/x=14/7
you would take 14*x and 8*7
14x=56 (you would then divide each side by 14)
x=4 (14/14=1, 56/14=4)
8/4=14/7
To check your work you could simplify
8/4=2
14/7=2
2=2, which is true
x=4
Hope this helps ;)
Alrighty, so, without the picture and the clues given I'm going to assume the image you have looks like two angles coming from the middle of a straight line. A straight line is equal to 180 degrees. 180 degrees minus 168 degrees equals 12.
Answer:
x=8 x=-2
Step-by-step explanation:
|x-3| -10=-5
Add 10 to each side
|x-3| -10+10=-5+10
|x-3| =5
Now separate into two equations , one positive and one negative
x-3 = 5 x-3 = -5
Add 3 to each side
x-3+3 = 5+3 x-3+3 = -5 +3
x=8 x=-2
It’s 7 in that’s the only answer that makes sense
