Answer:

x = \frac{5}{13}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

\frac{3}{4} x + \frac{5}{4} = 4x

Multiply through by 4 to clear the fractions

3x + 5 = 16x ( subtract 3x from both sides )

5 = 13x ( divide both sides by 13 )

\frac{5}{13} = x

Answer:

x = 5/13 = 0.385

Step-by-step explanation:

Step  1  :

           5

Simplify   —

           4

Equation at the end of step  1  :

   3         5    

 ((— • x) +  —) -  4x  = 0

   4         4    

Step  2  :

           3

Simplify   —

           4

Equation at the end of step  2  :

   3         5    

 ((— • x) +  —) -  4x  = 0

   4         4    

Step  3  :

Adding fractions which have a common denominator :

3.1       Adding fractions which have a common denominator

Combine the numerators together, put the sum or difference over the common denominator then reduce to lowest terms if possible:

3x + 5     3x + 5

——————  =  ——————

  4          4  

Equation at the end of step  3  :

 (3x + 5)    

 ———————— -  4x  = 0

    4        

Step  4  :

Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :

4.1   Subtracting a whole from a fraction

Rewrite the whole as a fraction using  4  as the denominator :

         4x     4x • 4

   4x =  ——  =  ——————

         1        4  

Equivalent fraction : The fraction thus generated looks different but has the same value as the whole

Common denominator : The equivalent fraction and the other fraction involved in the calculation share the same denominator

Adding fractions that have a common denominator :

4.2       Adding up the two equivalent fractions

Add the two equivalent fractions which now have a common denominator

Combine the numerators together, put the sum or difference over the common denominator then reduce to lowest terms if possible:

(3x+5) - (4x • 4)     5 - 13x

—————————————————  =  ———————

        4                4  

Equation at the end of step  4  :

 5 - 13x

 ———————  = 0

    4  

Step  5  :

When a fraction equals zero :

5.1    When a fraction equals zero ...

Where a fraction equals zero, its numerator, the part which is above the fraction line, must equal zero.

Now,to get rid of the denominator, Tiger multiplys both sides of the equation by the denominator.

Here's how:

 5-13x

 ————— • 4 = 0 • 4

   4  

Now, on the left hand side, the  4  cancels out the denominator, while, on the right hand side, zero times anything is still zero.

The equation now takes the shape :

  5-13x  = 0

Solving a Single Variable Equation :

5.2      Solve  :    -13x+5 = 0

Subtract  5  from both sides of the equation :

                     -13x = -5

Multiply both sides of the equation by (-1) :  13x = 5

Divide both sides of the equation by 13:

                    x = 5/13 = 0.385

One solution was found :

                  x = 5/13 = 0.385

A town's public works department has ordered sand to spread on roadways during the upcoming winter snows. The delivered sand for
ira [324]

Answer:

1256 cubic yards of sand.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question we have to find the volume of cone formed by sand.

Height of the cone is = 36 feet

Radius of the cone = 60/2 =30 feet.

Now we know the formula of volume of cone v = π r² (h/3)

By putting the values of r and h we can get the volume of sand to spread.

Volume = π×(30)²×(36/3) = 3.14×900×12 feet³

              = 33912 feet³

Now we will convert feet³ to cubic yards

Since 1 cubic feet = .037037 cubic yards

therefore 33912 cubic feet = 33912×.037 = 1256 cubic yards.

So the answer is 1256 cubic yards of sand has the department received.

I Need The Answer Plz!!! Geometry Is Hard!!!
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

B. 10

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to recognize that the two triangles are similar (the triangle with a leg value of 21 and the triangle with a leg value of 4 and hypotenuse x)

Let's first label the leg of the second triangle as y.

Then, we can set up this equation

\frac{21}{y} =\frac{y}{4}

Cross multiplying gives us

84=y^2

So, y=sqrt(84) or 2 sqrt(21).

Now, using the pythagorean theorem, we get

4^2+2sqrt(21)^2=x^2

100=x^2

x=10

Three of the angles of a polygon are
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

three angles of a polygon are each 105.5,the sum of the angles in the polygon is 2520. find each of the other angles if they are equal to each other. For a polygon with n sides and n angles, the sum of the measures of all the interior angles equals (n-2)180 degrees. 16-3=13
