How do I solve for x

Mathematics

Crazy boy [7]3 years ago
8 0
SOLUTION:

5a / x = 5b / x - 1

( 5a ) ( x - 1 ) = ( x ) ( 5b )

5ax - 5a = 5bx

5ax - 5bx = 5a

5x ( a - b ) = 5a

5x = 5a / ( a - b )

x = 5a / ( a - b ) ÷ 5

x = 5a / 5 ( a - b )

x = a / ( a - b )

Hope this helps! :)

The line legment has the length of 36 cm. It was divided into four unequal parts. If the distance between the midpoints of the f
goldenfox [79]
Hello.

 the line segment is 36 cm and the distance between the midpoints of the first and the fourth parts is 30 cm, this means that the sum of the lengths of the first and the last part is 

2(36 - 30) = 2(6) = 12 cm.

Thus, the sum of the length of the second and the third part is 36 - 12 = 24 cm.
Therefore, the distance between the midpoints of the second and the third parts is 24 / 2 = 12 cm.

Have a nice day

chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

I think it's D. The independent variable is the length of the race. The dependent variable is the time.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here I'm quoting user kaylaj051903 "because an independent variable is something that is constant and does not change throughout the problem. The dependent variable depends on the independent variable. The race is a 5K race. That will not change. What will change is how long it takes Stephanie to run the 5K race."

This year, a small business had a total revenue of $ 62 , 100. If this is 35 % more than their total revenue from the previous y
Olegator [25]

Answer:

$46000

Step-by-step explanation:

if x represents the previous years revenue, and they made 35% more than x, we need to find what 35% of x is and then add it to x to get the new total, so the equation becomes:

x + .35x = 62100

1.35x = 62100

x = 46000
