Hello !

Using the cross multiplication method, which of the following is the solution to 21/(x+4) = 7/(x+2)?

21(x + 2) = 7(x + 4)

21x + 42 = 7x + 28

21x - 7x = 28 - 42

14x = -14

x = -14/14

x = -1

Answer:

$x = \frac{ - 24 \pm \sqrt{ - 288} }{4} \\ = \frac{ - 24 \pm \sqrt{ ( - 1) {(12)}^{2} (2)} }{4} \\ = \frac{ - 24 \pm \sqrt{ - 1} \sqrt{ {12}^{2} } \sqrt{2} }{4} \\ = \frac{ - 24 \pm i 12\sqrt{2} }{4} \\ =-\frac{24}{4}\pm \frac{i12\sqrt{2}}{4}\\= - 6 \pm \: i3 \sqrt{2}$

After painting the fence steve and janet realize that their house also needs painting. But steve will have to do the painting hi

gladu [14]

Answer:

Therefore, Steve will paint house for 20.6 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that Steve determines that it would take them 9 days to paint the house together (if they were both healthy) and that it would take Janet (when healthy) 16 days to paint the house alone.

We conclude that in 1 day Janet painted 1/16 of the house. In nine days, Janet painted 9/16 of house.

So, 7/16 of house paint Steve in nine days.

We have the following proportion:

$\frac{7}{16}:9=1:x\\\\\frac{7}{16}x=9\\\\x=9\cdot \frac{16}{7}\\\\x=20.6$

Therefore, Steve will paint house for 20.6 days.
