Answer:

x=\frac{8}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given an equation 5x+(3x-\frac{4}{5})=12. We are asked to solve the given equation.

First of all, we will remove parentheses as:

5x+3x-\frac{4}{5}=12

Now, we will combine like terms.

8x-\frac{4}{5}=12

Upon adding \frac{4}{5} on both sides of equation, we will get:

8x-\frac{4}{5}+\frac{4}{5}=12+\frac{4}{5}

8x=12+\frac{4}{5}

Now, we need to make a common denominator.

8x=\frac{60}{5}+\frac{4}{5}

8x=\frac{60+4}{5}

8x=\frac{64}{5}

Our last step is to divide both sides by 8 as:

\frac{8x}{8}=\frac{64}{5\cdot 8}

x=\frac{8}{5\cdot 1}

x=\frac{8}{5}

Therefore, x=\frac{8}{5} is the solution of our given equation.

Answer:

2) ∠ACE ≅ ∠BCE

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering the complete question attached in Figure below, geometry shows that ∠ACB is bisected into two angles ∠ACE and ∠BCE and we know that bisection means to divide an angle into two equal angles. According to this the resultant angles ∠ACE and ∠BCE must be equal and congruent.

Viktor [21]

Answer:

x is the independent variable and it represents the number of hours worked per week by the clerk.

Step-by-step explanation:

An independent variable refers to a variable in model that is varied or changed in order to examine its effect on another variable. The other variable is called a dependent variable.

A dependent variable is a variable in a model that changes as a result of a change in the independent variable.

From the question, x is the independent variable and its represent the number of hours worked by the clerk.

F(x) represents the amount of your weekly paycheck and it is the dependent variable that changes as the number of hours worked, x, changes.

For example, since we are given:

F(x) = 6x ............................... (1)

Where;

F(x) = = depemdent variable = Amount of weekly paycheck (before taxes are taken out)

6 = coefficient of x = Earning per hour

x = Independent variable = Number of hours worked

Assuming x = 1, we can substitute this into equation (1) and have:

F(x) = 6 * 1 = $6

But when x = 2, we have:

F(x) = 6 * 2 = $12

Therefore, the dependent variable F(x) changes from $6 weekly to $12 weekly as the independent variable x changes form 1 hour to 2 hours weekly.
