Answer:

-4

Step-by-step explanation:

so 4 would be negative because it decreased and 2 would be positive because it increased so multiply -4 by 3 wich is -12 then add it by 2 times 4 which is 8 and it is -4

a television with a 5:4 screen shows an image with a ratio of 20:12 which creates a letter boxed image. What percent of the scre

Grace [21]

Answer: $75\%$

Step-by-step explanation:

You know that the ratio of the television's screen is $5:4$ . This ratio can be also written as the following fraction:

$\frac{5}{4}$

The television shows an image with a ratio of $20:12$ which can be also written as a fraction:

$\frac{20}{12}$

Set up the following proportion and solve for "x":

$\frac{20}{x}=\frac{5}{4}\\\\x=\frac{4*20}{5}\\\\x=16$

Now, in order to find the percent of the screen area occupied make the following division:

$\% occupied=\frac{12}{16}*100=75\%$

Solve the rational equation: x/x+1 = 2/x+1

Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{x}{x+1} =\frac{2}{x+1}$

x ≠ 0

x ≠ - 2

x ≠ - 1

$\frac{x}{x+1}(x+1) =\frac{2}{x+1}(x+1)$

x = 2

Factorise 9w² - 100<br><br><br>

ohaa [14]

Answer:

$9\, w^{2} - 100 = (3\, w - 10) \, (3\, w + 10)$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Fact:

$\begin{aligned} & (a - b)\, (a + b)\\ =\; & a^{2} + a\, b - a\, b - b^{2} \\ =\; & a^{2} - b^{2} \end{aligned}$ .

In other words, $(a^{2} - b^{2})$ , the difference of two squares in the form $a^{2}$ and $b^{2}$ , could be factorized into $(a - b)\, (a + b)$ .

In this question, the expression $(9\, w^{2} - 100)$ is the difference between two terms: $9\, w^{2}$ and $100$ .

$9\, w^{2}$ is the square of $3\, w$ . That is: $(3\, w)^{2} = 9\, w^{2}$ .
On the other hand, $10^{2} = 100$ .

Hence:

$9\, w^{2} - 100 = (3\, w)^{2} - (10)^{2}$ .

Apply the fact that $a^{2} - b^{2} = (a - b) \, (a + b)$ to factorize this expression. (In this case, $a = 3\, w$ whereas $b = 10$ .)

$\begin{aligned}& 9\, w^{2} - 100 \\ =\; & (3\, w)^{2} - (10)^{2} \\ = \; & (3\, w - 10)\, (3\, w + 10)\end{aligned}$ .
