in the beginning 

Harold X+5
Mary X

In 10 years

Harold X+5+10 X+15
Mary X+10 

4(X+15)-2(X+10)=50
4X+60-2X-20=50
2X+40=50
2X=50-40
2X=10
X= 10÷2
X=5

Harold At The Beginning 5+5=10
Mary At The Beginning 5

Divide 32 in the ratio 5 : 3
allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

53.3333.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since were asking to put 32 in the form of this ratio, we need to first turn the ratio into a fraction, in our case it is 5/3. Next we multiply 32 by 5/3 or to make it more simple multiply 32 by 5 to get 160, then divide 3 to get 53.3...

Hope this helps.

2/3x+7=5/6<br> Rewrite the equation below so that it doesn’t have fractions please.
kipiarov [429]

To eliminate all of the fractions in an equation, we can multiply the equation by the least common denominator of all of the fractions in the equation. To find the LCD, we need to find a number that has at least all of the factors of each of the denominators.


To find the LCD of the fractions in this equation, let's look at our denominators, 3 and 6. We can say 3 = 3 and 6 = 2 * 3. By examining this, we can see that our LCD <em>has to have </em>a 3 and 2, since those numbers are found in at least one of the fractions. Thus, our LCD is 3 * 2 = 6.


Now we know to multiply our entire equation by 6. This is solved as shown:

6(\dfrac{2}{3}x + 7) = 6(\dfrac{5}{6}) \Rightarrow \boxed{4x + 42 = 5}


Our answer is 4x + 42 = 5.
