The answer would be 10.8
9/5=x/6
Cross multiply
5x=54
Divide by 5
x=10.8
Zero-Exponent Rule: a0 = 1, this says that anything raised to the zero power is 1. ... Negative Exponent Rule: , this says that negative exponents in the numerator get moved to the denominator and become positive exponents. Negative exponents in the denominator get moved to the numerator and become positive exponents.
I hope this helps you
-[x+y=5]
-x-y=-5
x+4y=14
-x-y+x+4y=-5+14
3y=9 y=3 x=2
1. (3x-2)/4+1=5
2. (3x-2)/4+1-1=5-1
3. (3x-2)/4=4
4. (3x-2)/4+2=4+2
5. this is the mistake, wecan't just add them because the fractions aren't the same
(3x-2)/4 plus 2/1, the bottom numbers areen't the same
what should be done is go back to step 4 and mltiply both sides by 4, don't add 2
results in
5. 3x-2=16
6. 3x=18
7. x=6
