Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following DE = 4X-2

EF = 3x+2

FG 5x-3

GD = 2x+5

Since DE is parallel to GF, this means that the sides are equal hence;

4x - 2 = 5x - 3

4x - 5x = -3 + 2

-x = -1

x = 1

<em>Hence the value of x is 1</em>

Divide. Write each quotient in simplest form.<br> 2/3 ÷ 2 = _____ Show step-by-step solution.

never [62]

The answer is $\frac{1}{3}$

$\frac{2}{3}$ ÷ 2 = $\frac{2}{3}$ ÷ $\frac{2}{1}$

If $\frac{a}{b}$ ÷ $\frac{c}{d}$ = $\frac{a*d}{b*c}$ , then:
$\frac{2}{3}$ ÷ $\frac{2}{1}$ = $\frac{2*1}{3*2}$

Now, 2 can be canceled out from $\frac{2*1}{3*2}$ :
$\frac{2*1}{3*2}= \frac{1}{3}$

Adm,Ming,and Clinton sold sandwiches in the ratio 4:7:3 to raise money for their scout troop.Ming sold 91 sandwiches. How may sa

bonufazy [111]

The ratio in which Adm, Ming and Clinton sold sandwiches = 4:7:3
Number of sandwiches sold by Ming = 91
Let us assume the common ratio to be = x
Then
7x = 91
x = 91/7
= 13
Then
The number of sandwiches sold by Adm = 4 * 13
   = 52
The number of sandwiches sold by Clinton = 3 * 13
      = 39
So
The total number of sandwiches
sold by Adm, Ming and Clinton = 52 + 91 + 39
      = 182.
So a total of 182 sandwiches were sold by Adm, Ming and Clinton.
