How to solve 3x/7 - 1/2 = 1/14

Answer: 4/3

Step-by-step explanation:

First off, we should all get the denominators to be the same.

14 is the LCM of each of the denominators, so:

3x / 7 times 2/2 = 6x/14

-1/2 times 7/7 = -7/14

and 1/14 is 1/14

So now we have

6x/7 + -7/14 = 1/14

We can multiply everything by 14 to get rid of the denominator completely, which leaves us with:

6x - 7 = 1

Then we just solve like a normal equation:

6x = 8

x = 8/6 , or 4/3

Which equation can be used to find the length of AC?

lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

AC = 10sin40°

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the sine ratio in the right triangle

sin40° = $\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}$ = $\frac{AC}{AB}$ , then

sin40° = $\frac{AC}{10}$ ( multiply both sides by 10 )

10sin40° = AC
