Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of 5 to 5+3 is equivalent to the ratio of 15 to 15+x. This is because when you have a triangle inside of a triangle and both of them share two of the same sides and the third sides are parallel to each other, the side ratios of the triangles are always proportionate.

\frac{5}{5+3} =\frac{15}{15+x}   Starting equation

\frac{5}{8} =\frac{15}{15+x}   Simplify

5(15+x)=8*(15)   Cross multiply

75+5x=120   Distributive Property on left and simplify on right

5x=45   Isolate the variable

x=9   Divide both sides by 5 (Division Property of Equality)

Find the solution to the system of linear equations.
natali 33 [55]

Answer:

     x = -1          y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that the coefficients of x are opposites of each other.  That makes the problem so much easier to solve.  All you have  to do is add the two equations and the x terms will be eliminated.

2x - 4y = -10

<u>-2x - y = 0</u>

    - 5y = -10

        y = 2        Substitute y = 2 into the first equation.  2x - 4(2) = -10

                                                                                          2x - 8 = -10

                                                                                               2x = -2

                                                                                                 x = -1

It is always a good idea to check your results into the equations to see if they satisfy the equations.

I NEED ANSWER SUPER BAD PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!What is the greatest integer less than 100 for which the greatest common divisor of tha
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

92

Step-by-step explanation:

We will list out the numbers which are factors of 12. They include:

1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12.

We need to get the highest number that has its greatest factor to be 4. It means that 6 and 12 cannot divide it.

To do this, we will write out the multiples of 4. They include:

4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32, 36, 40, 44, 48, 52, 56, 60, 64, 68, 72, 76, 80, 84, 88,92,96.

We will have to choose the highest number which only 4  can divide and  6 and 12 cannot divide.

Since we are looking for the largest, We can try dividing all the numbers by 4, 6, and 12 starting from 96.

We will quickly see that 4 can divide 92 but 6 and 12 cannot.

This gives us 92 as the answer.
