Okay so will have x be the denominator. 
Numerator: 4x
Fraction: \frac{4x}{x} which would be equivalent to 4.
If you add 10 to both the numerator and denominator the resulting fraction is
\frac{4x + 10}{x + 10}= 2
We multiply both sides of the equal side sign times (x + 10) we get...
4x + 10 = 2 * (x + 10)
4x + 10 = 2x + 20
4x - 2x = 20 - 10
2x = 10
x = 5 < denominator
4x = 4 * 5 = 10 < So the fraction is 10/5

Help!!!<br> What is the equation of of the line that represents your initial climb?
Juliette [100K]

Answer:

y = 3x

Step-by-step explanation:

The exact equation for the climb would be y = (x-3)^2 + 9, however, a rough line that represents the climb is y = 3x.

Find the slope between (0, 0) and (3, 9) and we get m = 3. Plug it into y-int form and you get the line.

Solve the equation y = 200 - 5(x + 37) for x if y = 360.
julsineya [31]

Answer:

x= -35.153846

Step-by-step explanation:

360=200-5(x+37)

360=195(x+37)

360=195x+7215

360-7215=195x+7215-7215

-6855=195x

-6855/195=195x/195

-35.1538461538=x

-35.153846=x
