Answer:

CD = 45

Step-by-step explanation:

CE = 180

( x + 6 ) + ( 4x - 21 ) = 180

5x - 15 = 180

5x = 195

x = 39

substitute x in CD

CD = x + 6

CD = 39 + 6

CD = 45

A student was required to multiply a number by 4 and add 6 to it. Instead he added 6 to it first and then multiplied by 4. What

GalinKa [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is 18

the correct expression is $(4n+6)$

Step-by-step explanation:

let the number be n

therefore if he is required to multiply n by 4 and added to 6 we have

$(4n+6)= 0-----1$

given that he did otherwise by adding 6 to n and multiply by 4 we have

$(n+6)4= 36------2$

Firstly we need to solve for n in equation 2

$4n+24= 36\\4n= 36-24\\4n= 12\\$

Dividing both sides by 4 we have

$n= \frac{12}{4\\}\\n= 3$

In order to solve for the correct answer let us input n=3 in equation 1 we have

$=(4n+6)= 0-------1\\=(4*3+6)= 0\\=(12+6)=0\\= 18$

Show that x + y : x - y= 3 : 2

insens350 [35]

Answer:

x + y : x - y = (5/2+1/2) : (5/2-1/2)

x + y : x - y = 3 : 2

Therefore, x + y : x - y= 3 : 2 is proved.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x + y : x - y = 3 : 2

$x + y = 3$

$x - y = 2$

Solving to find x and y

$\begin{bmatrix}x+y=3\\ x-y=2\end{bmatrix}$

$x-y=2$

$-$

$\underline{x+y=3}$

$-2y=-1$

$\begin{bmatrix}x+y=3\\ -2y=-1\end{bmatrix}$

solve for y

$-2y=-1$

Divide both sides by 2

$\frac{-2y}{-2}=\frac{-1}{-2}$

$y=\frac{1}{2}$

$\mathrm{For\:}x+y=3\mathrm{\:plug\:in\:}y=\frac{1}{2}$

$x+\frac{1}{2}=3$

$x+\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{2}=3-\frac{1}{2}$

$x=\frac{5}{2}$

$x=\frac{5}{2},\:y=\frac{1}{2}$

Thus,

x + y : x - y = (5/2+1/2) : (5/2-1/2)

x + y : x - y = 3 : 2

Therefore, x + y : x - y= 3 : 2 is proved.
