Answer:

x=1.3288 or -1.1288

Step-by-step explanation:

Given 20x^{2}-30=4x

    Subtract 4x from both sides

         20x^{2}-4x-30=0

Since we can factor out 2 from whole equation, let's factor out 2.

         2(10x^{2}-2x-15)=0

Divide with 2 on both sides

         10x^{2}-2x-15=0

We got the quadratic equation, we can solve for x using quadratic formula.

x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac} } {2a}

x=\frac{2\pm\sqrt{2^{2}-4X10X(-15)} } {2X10}

x=\frac{2\pm\sqrt{604} }{20}

x=\frac{2\pm2\sqrt{151}}{20}

x=1.3288or-1.1288

If 2 is added to both the numerator and denominator of a fraction its value becomes half. If two is subtracted from both the num
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

The original fraction is \frac{6}{14}.

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution,

Let the fraction be'\frac{x}{y}'.

Where 'x' is the numerator and 'y' is the denominator.

Now according to question, if 2 is added to both the numerator and denominator the value of the fraction becomes 1/2.

So, framing the above sentence in equation form, we get;

\frac{x+2}{y+2}=\frac{1}{2}

On using cross multiplication method, we get;

2(x+2)=y+2\\\\2x+4=y+2\\\\2x+4-2=y\\\\\therefore\ y=2x+2\ \ \ \ equation\ 1

Now according to question, if 2 is Subtracted to both the numerator and denominator the value of the fraction becomes 1/3.

So, framing the above sentence in equation form, we get;

\frac{x-2}{y-2}=\frac{1}{3}

On using cross multiplication method, we get;

3(x-2)=y-2\\\\3x-6=y-2\\\\3x-y=-2+6\\\\3x-y=4 \ \ \ \ equation\ 2

Now Substituting the equation 1 in equation 1 we get;

3x-y=4\\\\3x-(2x+2)=4\\\\3x-2x-2=4\\\\3x-2x=4+2\\\\x=6

Now Substituting the value of x in equation 1 we get;

y=2x+2\\\\y=2\times6+2 = 14

Hence The original fraction is \frac{6}{14}.

3/10 multiply to find an equivalent fraction
SCORPION-xisa [38]
<span>You multiply both the numerator and the denominator by the same number (but not 1 or 0), but don't simplify. 3/10 is your fraction, and you could multiply the top and bottom numbers by 2 to get 6/20.

I hope I helped please leave thanks

If line n bisects CE, find CD. ​
Artist 52 [7]

If it bisect, then using the Line Bisector Theorem, it must be equal.

So x+6=4x-21

get like terms on 1 side

x+6=4x-21

-x. +21

27= 3x

x=9

plug the x in

CD= 9+6

CD=15
