Answer:

Correct answer: x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

If I saw your fractions right it's like this:

(2 + x) / (5 + x) = 2 / 3 => 3 (2 + x) = 2 (5 + x) => 6 + 3 x = 10 + 2 x

3 x - 2 x = 10 - 6  => x = 4

We will check

2 + 4 / 5+ 4 = 6 / 9  

When we divide both numerator and denominator

with 3 we get 2/3

Find the slope of the ordered pair. A(4,6) B(5,8)
andrezito [222]

Answer:

<h2>The slope is 2</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

we are required to find the slope of the given data points

A(4,6) B(5,8)

hence the x and y values correspond to

x1=4

y1=6

x2=5

y2=8

Step two:

Required is the slope which is

slope= y2-y1/x2-x1

Slope=8-6/5-4

Slope= 2/1

<em><u>Hence the slope of the ordered pair is 2</u></em>

I need to find the answer to this question and please explain how.
deff fn [24]

Among the given statements, the true statements are:

  • If a number is divisible by 3 and 4, then it is divisible by 12.
  • The number 119 is a composite number.

In the question, we are asked for the true statements among the given options:

1. All even numbers are composite numbers.

Answer - False

Reason - 2 is an even number, which is not a composite number.

2. If a number is divisible by 3 and 4, then it is divisible by 12.

Answer - True

Reason - If any number, n, is divisible by any two numbers, x and y, then it is also divisible by their LCM, and the LCM of 3 and 4 is 12.

3. All prime numbers are odd numbers.

Answer - False

Reason - 2 is a prime number, which is not odd.

4. The number 119 is a composite number.

Answer - True

Reason - The number 119 is a composite number, as it is not a prime number, as it is divisible by 7 and 17 too, other than 1 and itself.

5. 12 is a factor of 6.

Answer - False.

Reason - When 6 is divided by 12, the integral quotient that we get is 0, and the remainder is 6, but for any number x, to be a factor of y, on dividing y by x, the remainder should be 0.

6. If a number is divisible by 6 and 4, then it is also divisible by 4.

Answer - False

Reason - If any number, n, is divisible by any two numbers, x and y, then it is also divisible by their LCM, and the LCM of 6 and 4 is 12.

Thus, a number divisible by 6 and 4 is divisible by 12 but not necessarily by 24. Example 12 is divisible by both 6 and 4 but not divisible by 24.

Thus, among the given statements, the true statements are:

  • If a number is divisible by 3 and 4, then it is divisible by 12.
  • The number 119 is a composite number.

Find the general solution for the differential equation \displaystyle{\left.{d}{y}\right.}+{9}{x}\ {\left.{d}{x}\right.}={0}dy+9
densk [106]

Answer:

y= CC-4.5x^2

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the general solution to the differential equation

dy + 9x dx = 0, we employ the method of separating variable as follows:

Note: { will represent the integral sign here.

Separating the variables and integrating, we have

{dy  = -{9x dx

y = -(9/2)(x^2) + CC,

where CC is the given constant of integration.

This can be rearranged/simplified to yield

y= CC-4.5x^2

PLEASE HELP. <br> I know how to do these but I'm stuck on this one.
Nezavi [6.7K]

Steve ran 11 miles

let the distance Steve ran be x

Then distance Kevin ran is x + 4 ( 4 miles more than Steve )

x + x + 4 = 26 ( the sum of their distance is 26 )

2x + 4 = 26 ( subtract 4 from both sides )

2x = 22 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 11

Steve ran 11 mies and Kevin ran 11 + 4 = 15 miles

check 11 + 15 = 26
