Answer: The fractions are equal to each other

Step-by-step explanation: Notice that the fractions that we're comparing in this problem have different denominators. When fractions have different denominators, they're called unlike fractions.

To compare unlike fractions, we must first get a common denominator. The common denominator of 17 and 51 will be the least common multiple of 17 and 51 or 51.

To get a 51 in the denominator of 6/17, we multiply the numerator and the denominator by 3 which gives us 18/51.

Now we have two like fractions because they have the same denominators.

Notice that these fractions are equal to each other. This means that no fraction is larger than another, they're the same thing.

The two lines below intersect as shown what the value of x (2x+29) (9x-13)

tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Given:

Two lines intersect each other.

Consider the below figure attached with this question.

To find:

The value of x.

Solution:

If two lines intersect each other then the vertically opposite angles are congruent and their measures are equal.

In the given figure, the measures of two vertically opposite angles are (2x+29)° and (9x-13)°.

$2x+29=9x-13$

$2x-9x=-29-13$

$-7x=-42$

Divide both sides by -7.

$x=\dfrac{-42}{-7}$

$x=6$

Therefore, the value of x is 6.

Nancy's mother has a large collection of footwear.

DiKsa [7]

I think A, C, D are right because of the 12 pairs of heels, 6 are black (6/12) That means half of them could be chosen and be black (0.5). Another way to write 0.5 is as a percentage, 50%.
