I'LL GIVE YOU BRAINIEST!<br> 1 1/5 · x/3 = 9/10 solve for x

joja [24]

$\huge\text{Hey there!}$

$\huge\textbf{Equation:}$

$\mathbf{1 \dfrac{1}{5} \times \dfrac{x}{3} = \dfrac{9}{10}}$

$\huge\textbf{Solve:}$

$\mathbf{1 \dfrac{1}{5} \times \dfrac{x}{3} = \dfrac{9}{10}}$

$\mathbf{\rightarrow \dfrac{1\times5+1}{5} \times \dfrac{x}{3} = \dfrac{9}{10}}$

$\mathbf{\rightarrow \dfrac{5 + 1}{5} \times \dfrac{x}{3} = \dfrac{9}{10}}$

$\mathbf{\rightarrow \dfrac{6}{5} \times \dfrac{x}{3} = \dfrac{9}{10}}$

$\huge\textbf{Simplify it:}$

$\mathbf{\rightarrow \dfrac{2}{5}x = \dfrac{9}{10}}$

$\huge\textbf{Multiply \boxed{\bf \dfrac{5}{2}} to both sides:}$

$\mathbf{\rightarrow \dfrac{5}{2}\times \dfrac{2}{5}x = \dfrac{5}{2}\times \dfrac{9}{10}}$

$\huge\textbf{Simplify it:}$

$\mathbf{\rightarrow x = \dfrac{5}{2}\times \dfrac{9}{10}}$

$\mathbf{\rightarrow x = \dfrac{5\times9}{2\times10}}$

$\mathbf{\rightarrow x = \dfrac{45}{20}}$

$\mathbf{\rightarrow x = \dfrac{45\div5}{20\div5}}$

$\mathbf{\rightarrow x = \dfrac{9}{4}}$

$\mathbf{x \approx 2 \dfrac{1}{4}}$

$\huge\textbf{Therefore, your answer should be:}$

$\huge\boxed{\mathsf{x = }\frak{2 \dfrac{1}{4}}}\huge\checkmark$

Your crew can pave two driveways in a day. You work five days per week but take off 2 weeks each year for holidays and vacations

k0ka [10]

According to Philippine Payroll Regulations and Information, there will be a total of 247 working days for all employees working from Mondays to Fridays and considered Saturdays and Sundays as rest days. If the two weeks off is referring to employees working days only, it means employee can file a leave for 14 equivalent days off. Computations will be Total driveways= (247 days-14 days off) * 2 driveways per day and the answer is 466 driveways.

Please answer one question asap <br>A(-4,3) B(2,-1) D(-4,-1) C(2,-5)

Leni [432]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Vertices of the given quadrilateral are A(-4, 3), B(2, -1), C(2, -5) and D(-4, -1)

Since, slope of a line passing through two points $(x_1,y_1)$ and $(x_2,y_2)$ is given by,

Slope = $\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Slope of AB = $\frac{3+1}{-4-2}$

= $-\frac{2}{3}$

Slope of AD = $\frac{3+1}{-4+4}$

= Not defined (Parallel to y-axis)

Slope of DC = $\frac{-5+1}{2+4}$

= $-\frac{2}{3}$

Slope of BC = $\frac{-1+5}{2-2}$

= Not defined (Parallel to y-axis)

Slope of AB = slope of DC = $-\frac{2}{3}$

Slope of BC = slope of AD = Not defined (parallel to y-axis)

As per property of a parallelogram,

"Opposite sides of a parallelogram are parallel and equal in measure"

Therefore, ABCD is a parallelogram.
