Venus is the awnser to that question
Write and solve an equation of ratios:
x 9
---- = ----
16 x
Cross mult., we get x^2 = (16)(9)
Taking the sqrt of both sides, we get x = plus or minus (4)(3), or
x= plus or minus 12
Since x is measure of distance here, omit the -12 result. x = +12 units
Answer:
x = 21/4
Step-by-step explanation:
re-arrange the equation
-4+5x-7-3x = 10-2x (move 3x to the other side)
-4+5x-7-3x+2x = 10 (move 2x to the other side)
5x-7-3x+2x = 10+4 (move 4 to the other side)
5x-3x+2x = 10+4+7 (move 7 to the other side)
4x = 21 (add up both sides)
x = 21/4 (divide both sides by 4
