Ancient Egyptians did not write the fraction 4/5 as 4/5. Instead they used unit fractions. The numerator of a unit fraction is a

lways 1.No denominator used to represent a given fraction can be repeated. For this reason, Egyptians would have written 4/5 as 1/2 + 1/5 + 1/10 and not as 1/2 + 1/10 + 1/10 + 1/10. Write each of the following as a sum of unit fractions.

In the following diagram line CF is parallel to line CD. Segment DE has a length that is 4 inches greater than the length of CD.
Viefleur [7K]
Answer: CD = 10

Identify the given information. 
FG = 15
GE = 21
FE = 36
CD = x
DE = x + 4

Form your equation. Due to the Side-Splitter Theorem, FG/GE = CD/DE.
15/21 = x/x + 4

Cross-multiply and solve.
15(x + 4) = 21x            Distributive Property
15x + 60 = 21x           Subtract 15x from both sides
60 = 6x                      Divide by 6 to both sides
x = 10                         Answer!

Solve for the unknown by using the additive inverse. Type the FULL answer in the box, without using any spaces (ex., X=5).
zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

X=16

Step-by-step explanation:

10x-8=9x+8

First you have to simplify.

10x-9x=1x

So now the equation looks like this

x-8=8

Now you have to get x by itself

-8+8=0 and we have to do the same thing on both sides of the equal sign 8+8=16

The equation now looks like this x=16

And that's your answer
