Mathematics
1 answer:
monitta3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

x = \frac{ab}{b+a}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

\frac{x}{a} + \frac{x}{b} = 1

Multiply through by ab to clear the fractions

bx + ax = ab ← factor out x from each term on the left side

x(b + a) = ab ← divide both sides by (b + a)

x = \frac{ab}{b+a}

In what ways are inequalities like equations ?
solmaris [256]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Inequalities and equations are alike in that they both involve two sides of a sign (whether it is an equal sign or an inequality sign) being compared. For example, both y = x + 2 and y > x + 2 are just ways of comparing the values of x and y.

7x+(-7)=9x-7 what is the answer?
erastova [34]

Answer:

x=0

Step-by-step explanation:

7x+(-7)=9x-7

Add 7 to each side

7x+(-7)7=9x-7+7

7x = 9x

Subtract 7x from each side

7x-7x = 9x-7x

0 = 2x

Divide by 2

0 = 2x/2

0 = x
