Assume X is the number.
2X + 5 1/x = 23/3
3(2X² + 5) = 23X
6X² - 23X + 15 = 0

X = 3

Hope that helps you.

HELP ASAP PLZ 39 POINTS<br> Find x, y, u, v
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

x = 9; y = 12; u = 24; v = 32

Step-by-step explanation:

The corresponding sides of similar triangles are in the same ratio to each other.

      3/5 = (3 + x)/20     Multiply each side by 20

20×3/5 = 3 + x

       12 = 3 + x             Subtract 3 from each side

        x = 9

=====

      4/5 = (4 + y)/20     Multiply each side by 20

20×4/5 = 4 + y

       16 = 4 + y              Subtract 4 from each side

        y = 12

=====

      3/5 = (3 + x + u)/60     Multiply each side by 60

60×3/5 = 3 + x + u

       36 = 3 + x + u             Insert the value of x

       36 = 3 + 9 + u

       36 = 12 + u                 Subtract 12 from each side

         u = 24

=====

      4/5 = (4 + y + v)/60     Multiply each side by 60

60×4/5 = 4 + y + v

       48 = 4 + y + v             Insert the value of y

       48 = 4 + 12 + v

       48 = 16 + v                 Subtract 16 from each side

         v = 32

x = 9; y = 12; u = 24; v = 32

the length of a rectangular room is 16 less than four times the width. the perimeter of the room is 68 feet. find the length and
Olegator [25]

Answer:

Length = 30.4 ft

Width = 3.6 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Width: x

Length: 4x + 16

2(x) + 2 (4x + 16) = 68

2x + 8x + 32= 68

10x = 68 - 32

x = 36/10

x = 3.6

Width = 3.6 ft

Length: 30.4 ft

A student took a system of equations, multiplied the first equation by and the second equation by , then added the results toget
Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

option A

-2x + 4y = 4

-3x + 6y = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

In option A, if the student multiply the first equation by 3 and the second equation by -2, then the equations become

-6x+12y = 12 and

6x-12y =-12

If she adds both equations, she will get 0 = 0

This means that the system has infinite number of solutions.

Hence, the student could have started with equations -2x + 4y = 4 and -3x + 6y = 6.
