Answer:

3 + 8x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's take into account the wording of this problem.

Three more than the quotient of a number and 8, is 9.

By the word more, we can assume they are talking about addition.

So far, we have:

3 +

By the word quotient, we can assume they are talking about the sum of two numbers being multiplied together.

So, now we have:

3 + 8x

From is 9, we can say that is 9 is just a fancier way of saying is equal to 9.

So finally, we have:

3 + 8x = 9

10 3/9- 10 2/5 Im to lazy to do it please help me out.

Answer:

$\boxed{ \ - \frac{3}{45} }$

Step-by-step explanation:

10 3/9 - 10 2/5

we need to convert mixed fractions to improper fractions

$10 \frac{3}{9} = \frac{10 \times 9 + 3}{9} = \frac{93}{9}$

$10 \frac{2}{5} = \frac{10 \times 5 + 2}{5} = \frac{52}{5}$

Now, we have 93/9 - 52/5

We need to equate the denominators, before subtracting them.

$\frac{93}{9} - \frac{52}{5} = \frac{93 \times 5}{45} - \frac{52 \times 9}{45}$

$\frac{465}{45} - \frac{468}{45}$

$\frac{ - 3}{45}$

$\boxed{ - \frac{3}{45} }$

The result of 10 3/9- 10 2/5 is - 3/45

If L is parallel to M, find the values of x, y, and all 3 angles.

lesya [120]

Answer:

8x - 14 = 5x + 34 (alternate exterior angles)

8x - 5x = 34 + 14

3x = 48

x = 48/3

x = 16

5y + 16 + 8x - 14 = 180 (linear pair)

5y + 16 + 8(16) - 14 = 180

5y + 16 + 128 - 14 = 180

5y + 130 = 180

5y = 180 - 130

5y = 50

y = 50/5

y = 10

∠ (8x - 14) = 114 [(8 × 16 -14)=114]

∠ (5x + 34) = 114 [(5 × 16 +34)=114]

∠ (5y + 16) = 66 [(5 × 10 +16)=66]

hope this helps you!
