Answer:

The answer to your question is x = 10/19

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation

6 / (x + 2) = 5 / 4x

To solve this equation use cross multiplication

6(4x) = 5(x + 2)

Simplify

24x = 5x + 10

Subtract 5x in both sides of the equation

24x - 5x = 5x - 5x + 10

Simplify

19x = 10

Divide by 19 both sides

19x/19 = 10/19

Simplify

x = 10/19

Solve this problem in your notebook using all four steps. A board 60 in. long is cut into two parts so that the longer piece is

Viktor [21]

X = shorter piece
y = longer piece = 5x

shorter piece + longer piece = 60
x + 5x = 60
6x = 60
x = 60/6
x = 10 in. <== shorter piece

y = 5x
y = 5(10)
y = 50 in. <== longer piece

Instructions: Use the ratio of a 30-60-90 triangle to solve for the variables.

Pepsi [2]

Answer:

$x=20$

$y=10\,\sqrt{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

In the triangle we have the following trigonometric equations:

$tan(60^o)=\frac{opposite}{adjacent} \\\sqrt{3} =\frac{y}{10} \\y=10\,\sqrt{3}$

and also:

$cos(60^o)=\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}\\\frac{1}{2} =\frac{10}{x}\\x=20$
