For this case we have the following fractions:

We must rewrite the fractions, using the same denominator.
We have then:
We multiply the first fraction by 11 in the numerator and denominator:

We multiply the second fraction by 2 in the numerator and denominator:

Rewriting we have:
For the first fraction:

For the second fraction:

We note that:

Answer:
The fractions are not equivalent:

Answer:
(4, 5 )
Step-by-step explanation:
x + y = 9 → (1)
x - y = - 1 → (2)
adding the 2 equations term by term will eliminate y
2x + 0 = 8
2x = 8 ( divide both sides by 2 )
x = 4
substitute x = 4 into either of the 2 equations and solve for y
substituting into (1)
4 + y = 9 ( subtract 4 from both sides )
y = 5
solution is (4, 5 )
Answer:
CB= 4
Step-by-step explanation:
the triangles are in AA similarity.
AB/AD = BC/DE
4/12 = x/12
CROSS MULTIPLY;
x = 48/12
x = 4

I think the answer would be <span>A=0.85
B=(1 - 0.15)d
C=85d
