The problem can be translated into an equation that is something like 4/5 + 3/x = 1/2
we cannot have x equal to zero because the number can be infinite.
So the LCD here is 10x, so multiply both sides by that to get:
8x + 30 = 5x
Subtract 5x and 30 from both sides:
3x = -30
divide:
x = -10
The solution isn't zero so there is a solution.
Answer:
B. The two lines are neither parallel nor perpendicular.
Step-by-step explanation:
First, put both lines into the same format. In this example, we're going to use y=mx+b format.
x - 4y = -9
-4y = -x + -9
y = (-x + -9) / -4
y = (x+9)/-4
y = (-1/4)x + (-9/4)
y = 3x - 7
If two lines are parallel, they have the same slope. (ie 4 and 4)
If two lines are perpendicular, one line's slope is the negative reciprocal of the other. (ie 4 and -1/4)
Neither is true here.
The greatest common factor( GCF) of 36 and 84 is 12.
The answer is 52
x - the number of students in a bus
4 + 9x = 472
9x = 472 - 4
9x = 468
x = 468 / 9
x = 52

930 = _____ tens = ____ x ____
My answer is:
930 = ninety-three tens or 93 tens = 93 x 10
