Answer:
x=2.8≈3
Step-by-step explanation:
x:2=7:5
by cross-multiplication
x×5=2×7
5x=14
x=14/5
x=2.8≈3
i hope this will help you :)
B. slope is -1/2
This is because the m-value aka the slope is always the reciprocal if the line is perpendicular
Answer:
f = 1, w = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
5w = 23 - 3f → (1)
4f = 12 - 2w (add 2w to both sides )
2w + 4f = 12 ( subtract 4f from both sides )
2w = 12 - 4f → (2)
Multiplying (1) by 4 and (2) by - 3 and adding the result will eliminate f
20w = 92 - 12f → (3)
- 6w = - 36 + 12f → (4)
Add (3) and (4) term by term to eliminate f
14w = 56 ( divide both sides by 14 )
w = 4
Substitute w = 4 into either of the 2 equations and solve for f
Substituting into (1)
5(4) = 23 - 3f
20 = 23 - 3f ( subtract 23 from both sides )
- 3 = 3f ( divide both sides by - 3 )
1 = f
Let x be for unknown number. Let x be first number .
X+1 To be second number .x+2be third number. X+(x+1)+(x+2)=312.
Simplify to get 3x+3=312 . Subtract 3 from both sides 3x-3=312-3. Once you subtract get 3x=109.then divide 3 both sides . 3x/3=309/3. To get x= 103.
Now once you have that First number 103. Second number 103+1=104 . And third number 103+2=105. To check add them 103+104+105=312
