7/5 = 14/10 = 28/20

Numerator = x

Denominator = x-4

Add 3 to both:

x +3 / (x-4+3)

x+3 = 14

(x-4 +3) = 10 = x-1 = 10

x = 11

Check:

11 -4 = 7 ( denominator is 4 less than the numerator.)

add 3 to both:

11+3 = 14

7+3 = 10

14/10 reduces to 7/5

The original fraction would be 11/7

How do you solve a system of linear equations by graphing? ​
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

9514 1404 393

Explanation:

This is a self-answering question: you solve it by graphing the equations.

<em>The solution is where the lines intersect</em>. The point of intersection of the lines is the point that satisfies all the equations for the lines, hence is a solution to the system. If they do not intersect, there are no solutions. If the lines are coincident, there are an infinite number of solutions.

__

The equations can be graphed by any of a number of methods. (My favorite is to let a graphing calculator do it.) The method of choice depends on the coefficients and the form the equations are given in. Methods of graphing are a topic for a more lengthy discussion.
