Answer:
x = -5/7
Step-by-step explanation:
8 1
---------- = ----------
x+3 x+1
Using cross products
8 (x+1) = 1 (x+3)
Distribute
8x+8 = x+3
Subtract x from each side
8x-x +8 = x-x+3
7x+8 =3
Subtract 8 from each side
7x +8-8 =3-8
7x = -5
Divide each side by 7
7x/7 = -5/7
x = -5/7
X^2 - 13 x = -36
add 36 to both sides
x^2 - 13x +36 = 0
figure out the factor
(x-4)(x-9) = 0
so (x-4) or (x-9) equals 0
so solution is
x-4=0 add 4 to both sides and get x = 4
x-9=0 add 9 to both sides and get x=9
x={ 4, 9}
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Charlie has $27

Money he needs to pay for each sandwich = 24/6 = $4
Answer:
∠ WUV = 36°
Step-by-step explanation:
The exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the 2 opposite interior angles.
∠ VWX is an exterior angle of the triangle, thus
8x - 18 = 2x + 8 + 3x + 16
8x - 18 = 5x + 24 ( subtract 5x from both sides )
3x - 18 = 24 ( add 18 to both sides )
3x = 42 ( divide both sides by 3 )
x = 14
Thus
∠ WUV = 2x + 8 = 2(14) + 8 = 28 + 8 = 36°
