Answer:

7/30

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that Seven-ninths (7/9) of the pencils in a box are yellow and three-tenths (3/10) of the yellow pencils are sharpened.

To find the fraction that represents sharpened yellow pencils, we find the product of the the fraction of yellow pencils and the fraction of yellow pencils that are sharpened.

That is:

=> (7 / 9) * (3 / 10)

=(7 * 3) / (9 * 10)

= 21 / 90

= 7 / 30

7/30 represents the fraction of sharpened yellow pencils.

What is x. Please show *all* the steps.
Zolol [24]

The equation 5/2 - x + x - 5/x + 2 + 3x + 8/x^2 - 4 = 0 is a quadratic equation

The value of x is 8 or 1

<h3>How to determine the value of x?</h3>

The equation is given as:

5/2 - x + x - 5/x + 2 + 3x + 8/x^2 - 4 = 0

Rewrite as:

-5/x - 2 + x - 5/x + 2 + 3x + 8/x^2 - 4 = 0

Take the  LCM

[-5(x + 2) + (x -5)(x- 2)]\[x^2 - 4 + [3x + 8]/[x^2 - 4] = 0

Expand

[-5x - 10 + x^2 - 7x + 10]/[x^2 - 4] + [3x + 8]/[x^2 - 4] = 0

Evaluate the like terms

[x^2 - 12x]/[x^2 - 4] + [3x + 8]/[x^2 - 4 = 0

Multiply through by x^2 - 4

x^2 - 12x+ 3x + 8 = 0

Evaluate the like terms

x^2 -9x + 8 = 0

Expand

x^2 -x - 8x + 8 = 0

Factorize

x(x -1) - 8(x - 1) = 0

Factor out x - 1

(x -8)(x - 1) = 0

Solve for x

x = 8 or x = 1

Hence, the value of x is 8 or 1

h = 4

k = 2

r = 5

sub in all this info:

(x-4)*2 + (y-2)*2 = 25
