Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
we would like to solve the following equation:
in order to do so do cross multiplication:
divide both sides by √3:
since we ended up with a square root on the denominator so we can consider rationalising the denominator to do so multiply both numerator and denominator by √3 which yields:
simplify multiplication:
reduce fraction:
and we are done!
Y/x=k
when y=9, then x= -3
9/-3=-3
⇒ k= -3
She will need to drive 110 miles to be the same
Multiply both sides of the equation by 12. Move the variables to the left-hand side and change its sign. Move the constant to the left-hand side and change its sign. Collect like terms. Add the numbers. Divide both sides of the equation by 12.
1/2 x - 5= - 1/2 x + 19/4
6x -20= - 6x + 57
6x + 6x= 57 + 20
12x= 57 + 20
12x= 77
ANSWER
x = 77/12
Alternative Form .
x = 6 5/12, x= 6.416
