Answer:
-5
Step-by-step explanation:
its the same as adding positive numbers but with a minus sign so -3+(-2)= -5
We want to solve
4/7 = x/161
Cross multiply.
7x =(4)(161) = 644
Divide each side by 7.
x = 644/7 = 92
Answer: x = 92
Step-by-step explanation:
Given equations:
y = x² + 3x - 29 ------ (i)
y = 2x - 9 ---------------- (ii)
Now to solve this problem, we must determine the value of x and y;
Equate equations 1 and 2;
x² + 3x - 29 = 2x - 9
x² + 3x - 2x - 29 + 9 = 0
x² + x - 20 = 0
x² + 5x - 4x - 20 = 0
x(x + 5 ) - 4(x + 5) = 0
(x - 4) (x+ 5) = 0
x - 4 = 0 or x + 5 = 0
x = 4 or x = -5;
So; solve for y now;
y = 2x - 9
input x = 4 or x = -5;
y = 2(4) - 9 or y = 2(-5) - 9
y = -1 or y = -19
So you do the recipical and multipy 7 by 2 and your fraction is 14/24 and simplify which you get 7/12
