Answer:

x=-1

Step-by-step explanation:

8/x+2=2/x-4

8/x=2/x-6

Answer:

x=6

Step-by-step explanation:

8/x+2=2/x-4

Using cross products

8*(x-4) = 2 (x+2)

Distribute

8x - 32 = 2x+4

Subtract 2x

8x-2x -32 = 2x-2x+4

6x-32 = 4

Add 32

6x-32+32 = 4+32

6x = 36

Divide by 6

6x/6 = 36/6

x = 6

N the diagram, and are horizontal lines and is a vertical line segment. If FB : FC = 4 : 3, what are the coordinates of point D?
riadik2000 [5.3K]
<span>Given the diagram, where AB and EF are horizontal lines and CB is a vertical line segment. Given that FB : FC = 4 : 3, From the diagram, the coordinate of A is (-10, -8) and the coordinate of C is (-3. -1). We can also see that the coordinate of B is (-3, -8) (since CB is a vertical line means that B is the same x-value as C and AB is a horizontal line means that B is the same y-value as A) Recall that the coordinate of a point dividing a line segment in the ratio m:n is given by (x1 + m/(m+n) (x2 - x1), y1 + m/(m+n) (y2 - y1)) Thus, since FB : FC = 4 : 3, this means that point F divides the line segment BC in the ratio 4 : 3. Thus, the coordinate of F is given by (-3 + 4/(4+3) (-3 - (-3)), -8 + 4/(4+3) (-1 - (-8))) = (-3 + 4/7 (0), -8 + 4/7 (7)) = (-3, -4). Also, given that FB : FC = 4 : 3, this means that point D divides the line segment AC in the ratio 4 : 3. Thus, the coordinate of D is given by (-10 + 4/(4+3) (-3 - (-10)), -8 + 4/(4+3) (-1 - (-8))) = (-10 + 4/7 (7), -8 + 4/7 (7)) = (-6, -4). Therefore, the coordinates of point D is (-6, -4).</span>

A fish dives into a depth of -3/4 mile below the surface of the water. A turtle's depth is 1/3 as deep as the fish's depth. What
Tomtit [17]
Basically you just need to multiply the two fractions together to get the depth of the turtle. Therefore the turtle is 3/12 miles deep or 1/4 mile deep.
