Answer:

 x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

  \dfrac{7}{8}-\dfrac{1}{x}=\dfrac{3}{4}\\\\7x-8=6x\qquad\text{multiply by $8x$ to clear fractions}\\\\\boxed{x=8}\qquad\text{add $8-6x$}

__

If you don't mind dealing with fractions, you can add 1/x -3/4 to get ...

  7/8 -3/4 = 1/x

  1/8 = 1/x . . . . . . . simplify

  x = 8 . . . . . . . . . . take reciprocals; equivalently, multiply by 8x.

If the roots of a quadratic equation are 1±√5, then the product of the roots is
Drupady [299]
The plus-minus sign represents that there are two possible outcomes.

In this case, we have 1 \pm \sqrt{5}. When we branch out the possibilities we got 2 values: 1 + \sqrt{5} and 1 - \sqrt{5}

Those are the roots of this equation. When they ask their product, they want you to multiply both numbers.

When we multiply them: (1 + \sqrt{5}) \times( 1 - \sqrt{5})

When we FOIL the we get: 1 \times 1 - 1 \times \sqrt{5} + 1 \times \sqrt{5} - \sqrt{5} \times \sqrt{5}

Simplify:
1 - \sqrt{5} + \sqrt{5} - 5
1 - 5 = 6

So the product of the two roots of this equation is 6.

Polygon ABCD is plotted on a coordinate plane and then rotated 90° clockwise about point C to form polygon A′B′C′D′. Match each
horrorfan [7]

The vertices of ABCD after 90 degrees clockwise rotation about point C are: A' (0,6), B' (3,7), C' (4,6) and D' (4,3)

<h3>How to match the vertices of the polygon?</h3>

The image of the polygon ABCD is not given; however, the question can still be answered because the coordinates are known.

The vertices of polygon ABCD are given as:

A = (4, 6)

B = (5, 3)

C = (4, 2)

D = (1, 2)

The rule of rotation about point C is:

(x,y) = (a + b - y, x + b - a)

Where:

(a, b) = (4, 2) --- the point of rotation.

So, we have:

(x,y) = (4 + 2 - y, x + 4 - 2)

(x,y) = (6 - y, x + 2)

The above means that:

A' = (6 - 6, 4 + 2) = (0,6)

B' = (6 - 3, 5 + 2) = (3,7)

C' = (6 - 2, 4 + 2) = (4,6)

D' = (6 - 2, 1 + 2) = (4,3)

Hence, the image of the rotation and their vertices (i.e. coordinates) are:

A' = (0,6)

B' =  (3,7)

C' = (4,6)

D' =  (4,3)
