Solve the following proportions 3/x-3=8/2x+6 X=

Mathematics
1 answer:
Rzqust [24]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

21

Step-by-step explanation:

3/(x-3) = 8/(2x+6)

or, 3(2x+6) = 8(x-3)   ( by cross multiplication)

or, 6x + 18 = 8x - 24

or, 8x - 6x = 24 + 18

or, 2x = 42

or, x = 42/2

=21

miskamm [114]
Let the distance of Judy from intersection is x and distance of Jackie from intersection is y.

We convert the given information to equations, step by step.

Point 1: When Jackie is 1 mile farther from the intersection than Judy.

This means y is 1 mile more than x.

So,

y = 1 + x

Point 2: The distance between them is 2 miles more than Judy’s distance from the intersection. 

Distance between is x+ y.

So, x+y is 2 miles more than y.

x+y = y + 2
⇒
x = 2

From point 1 we have:

y = 1 + x = 1+ 2 = 3

So,

Distance of Judy from intersection is 2 miles and distance of Jackie from intersection is 3 miles.
