Decompose 8/12 in two ways with: <br> x/2 + x/2 = 8/12

LUCKY_DIMON [66]

$\frac{x}{2} + \frac{x}{2} = \frac{8}{12} \\\frac{2x}{2} = \frac{2}{3} \\x = \frac{2}{3}$
or
$\frac{x}{2} + \frac{x}{2} = \frac{8}{12} \\\frac{x}{2} + \frac{x}{2} = \frac{2}{3} \\\frac{\frac{2}{3}}{2} + \frac{\frac{2}{3}}{2} = \frac{2}{3} \\\frac{1}{3} + \frac{1}{3} = \frac{2}{3} \\\frac{2}{3} = \frac{2}{3}$

How do I do this? 50 points, please answer

xz_007 [3.2K]

Check the picture below.

now, the midsegment of a triangle, besides being half the base, we have to bear in mind that is a "mid" segment, is a segment that lies half-way along the segments it touches.

so for the triangle above, well, the midsegment DE is cutting the segment BC it two equal halves, BE and EC, that means that $\stackrel{x}{BE}~~ = ~~\stackrel{8}{EC}$ .

What is the correct answer to 19x+rx=−37x+w

pickupchik [31]

Get all the x terms on one side, and the w on the other.
Add 37x on both sides to get 56x+rx=w.
Use the distributive property backwards to get x(56+r)=w.
Divide by 56+r on both sides to get x=w/(56+r)
