$We\ can\ check\ it\ making\ the\ same\ denominator\ for\ both\ fractions:\\\\ \frac{16}{14}=\frac{960}{840}\\\\
\frac{64}{60}=\frac{896}{840}\\\\
\frac{960}{840} \neq \frac{896}{840}\\\\They\ are\ not\ equivalent.$

Solve for x. hint:half circle.

Romashka [77]

Answer:

$x = 10$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The attached circle

Required

Find the measure of x

From the attached image:

$11x + 2$ and $-2 + 7x$ form a semi-circle

So:

$11x + 2 -2 + 7x = 180$

Collect like terms

$11x + 7x = 180+ 2 -2$

$18x = 180$

Solve for x

$x = \frac{180}{18}$

$x = 10$

In the right ΔABC, AN is the altitude to the hypotenuse. Find BN, AN, and AC, if AB=2√5 in and NC= 1 in.

kipiarov [429]

Answer:

$BN=4\ \text{in}$

$AN=2\ \text{in}$

$AC=\sqrt{5}\ \text{in}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $BN=x$

$BC=c$

$NC=y=1\ \text{in}$

$AB=a=2\sqrt{5}\ \text{in}$

$AC=b$

We have the relation

$\dfrac{BC}{AB}=\dfrac{AB}{BN}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{c}{a}=\dfrac{a}{x}\\\Rightarrow c=\dfrac{a^2}{x}\\\Rightarrow x+1=\dfrac{a^2}{x}\\\Rightarrow x^2+x=20\\\Rightarrow x^2+x-20=0\\\Rightarrow x=\frac{-1\pm \sqrt{1^2-4\times 1\times \left(-20\right)}}{2\times 1}\\\Rightarrow x=4,-5$
