Lana71 [14]

Let rajus age be x

His father=3x+5

ATQ

$\\ \bull\tt\longmapsto 3x+5=50$

$\\ \bull\tt\longmapsto 3x=50-5$

$\\ \bull\tt\longmapsto 3x=45$

$\\ \bull\tt\longmapsto x=\dfrac{45}{3}$

$\\ \bull\tt\longmapsto x=15$

What Fraction Of The Wall Did Kevin Paint?

Mila [183]

Kevin painted $\frac{1}{9}$ of the wall.

Solution:

Fraction of the wall painted by Elena = $\frac{5}{9}$

Fraction of the wall painted by Matthew = $\frac{3}{9}$

Fraction of the wall painted by Kevin = ?

Full wall can be taken as 1.

<u>To find the wall painted by Kevin:</u>

Rest of the wall = Full wall – painted by Elena – Painted by Matthew

$$=1-\frac{5}{9}-\frac{3}{9}$

$$=\frac{1}{1} -\frac{5}{9}-\frac{3}{9}$

To make the denominator same, multiply the numerator and denominator of the first term by 9.

$$=\frac{9}{9} -\frac{5}{9}-\frac{3}{9}$

$$=\frac{9-5-3}{9}$

$$=\frac{1}{9}$

Rest of the wall = $\frac{1}{9}$

Hence the kevin painted $\frac{1}{9}$ of the wall.

Find the value of x (3/5)^x(5/3)^2x=125/27

lesya692 [45]

Given:

The equation is

$\left(\dfrac{3}{5}\right)^x\left(\dfrac{5}{3}\right)^{2x}=\dfrac{125}{27}$

To find:

The value of x.

Solution:

We have,

$\left(\dfrac{3}{5}\right)^x\left(\dfrac{5}{3}\right)^{2x}=\dfrac{125}{27}$

$\left(\dfrac{5}{3}\right)^{-x}\left(\dfrac{5}{3}\right)^{2x}=\dfrac{5\times 5\times 5}{3\times 3\times 3}$ $[\because \left(\dfrac{a}{b}\right)^{-m}=\left(\dfrac{b}{a}\right)^{m}]$

$\left(\dfrac{5}{3}\right)^{-x+2x}=\dfrac{5^3}{3^3}$ $[\because a^ma^n=a^{m+n}]$

$\left(\dfrac{5}{3}\right)^{x}=\left(\dfrac{5}{3}\right)^{3}$

On comparing the exponents, we get

$x=3$

Therefore, the value of x is 3.
