Answer in fraction form: x = 55/4
Answer in decimal form: x = 13.75
Both forms are equivalent, but they say it in a slightly different way.
===========================================================
Work Shown:
AC/QY = CD/YW
(x+5)/15 = 5/4
4(x+5) = 15*5
4x+20 = 75
4x = 75-20
4x = 55
x = 55/4
x = 13.75
------------
Explanations:
- The first step is possible because the polygons are similar. Similar figures have their corresponding sides be in the same proportion or ratio. Note how side AC has the double red angle (at point A) and a single red angle (point C). The side QY has the same idea in the same order. This is why AC corresponds to QY. The ratio AC/QY is the same as CD/YW.
- In the second step, I plugged in the expressions that the diagram shows. This is the substitution property.
- On step 3, I cross multiplied. The general format is A/B = C/D cross multiplies to A*D = B*C.
Option D.
Find slope first, then b for y intercept
Answer:
x=-21
Step-by-step explanation:
-3(x-8)=87
-3x+24=87
-3x=63
x=-21
Volume units quarts to gallons (fluid and dry) conversion factor is 0.25 (quart is 1/4 of an gallon). To find out how many gallons in quarts, multiply by the factor, or simply use the converter below.
1 Quart = 0.25 (1/4) Gallon [US, UK, Fluid or Dry]
Quart and gallon are imperial and US customary volume measurement units. In US customary system, both units have different volume capacity for dry and fluid measurements but in imperial (UK), the volume is the same for both fluid and dry measurement.
So your asking for the answer for 3/12 cups of flour with an additional of 14 I got this 3/12+14= 171/12
Simplifies to 57/4= 14 1/4
