Answer:
x = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
The product of the external part and the entire part of one secant is equal to the product of the external part and the entire part of the other secant, that is
5(x - 6 + 5) = 4(x - 3 + 4)
5(x - 1) = 4(x + 1) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides
5x - 5 = 4x + 4 ( subtract 4x from both sides )
x - 5 = 4 ( add 5 to both sides )
x = 9

Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
0=3x-7
0=3x+7
7=3x/3
7/3=x
Let's say that the weight of the orange is x and the weight of the pineapple is y.
The weight of the pineapple is 7 times that of the orange, so
y = 7x.
Also, y = x + 870.
Therefore, 7x = x + 870.
If we take away x from both sides, we get 6x = 870
If we divide both sides by 6, we get x = 145.
Therefore, the weight of the orange is 145 g.
Also, 145 + 870 = 1015.
So the weight of the pineapple is 1015 g.
To convert grams into kilograms, they must be divided by 1000.
Therefore, the weight of the orange in kilograms is 145/1000 = 0.145 kg
And the weight of the pineapple is 1015/1000 = 1.015 kg.
Answers:
a. 145g for the orange and 1015g for the pineapple.
b. 0.145kg for the orange and 1.015kg for the pineapple.
