The answer is 1.5 or 1 1/2.
here is the how you get this answer.
1: Cross Multiply (1.2)(60)=x
2: divide x by 48
3: you should get 1.5 or 3/2
BTW x is equal to 72

Answer:x=150
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Subtract 1.2x from both sides.
0.8x+20−1.2x=1.2x−40−1.2x
−0.4x+20=−40
Step 2: Subtract 20 from both sides.
−0.4x+20−20=−40−20
−0.4x=−60
Step 3: Divide both sides by -0.4.
−0.4x
−0.4
=
−60
−0.4
Top:
x / (x + 1) - 1 / x
= [x^2 - (x +1)] / x(x+1)
= (x^2 - x - 1 ) / x (x+1)
Bottom:
x / (x + 1) + 1 / x
= [x^2 + (x +1)] / x(x+1)
= (x^2 + x + 1 ) / x (x+1)
Now you have:
(x^2 - x - 1 ) / x (x+1)
----------------------------
(x^2 + x + 1 ) / x (x+1)
= (x^2 - x - 1 ) / x (x+1) * x (x+1) / (x^2 + x + 1 )
= (x^2 - x - 1 ) /(x^2 + x + 1 )
Answer:
x^2 - x - 1
---------------------
x^2 + x + 1
