Answer:

Step-by-step explanation

Hello!

3x/4 + 6=42

3x/4=42-6 = 36

3x = 36*4

3x = 144

x= 144/3 =48

3/4 of  48  = (48*3)  / 4 =36

36+6=42

the original number​ is 48

Do the ratios 10:9 and 17:15 form a proportion?
KIM [24]

Answer:

Nope! these ratios do not form a proportion

Step-by-step explanation:

if you use a calculator to divide 10/9, you get 1.111 repeating.

if you use a calculator to divide 17/15, you get 1.133 repeating.

<em>since 1.111 does not equal 1.113, </em><em>these ratios are not proportional. </em>

Kala, Deandre, and Eric have a total of $119 in their wallets, Kala has $6 more than Deandre. Eric has 3 times what kala has. Ho
Tomtit [17]
Deandre = x
Kala = x + 6
Eric = 3(x+6)
x + x + 6 + 3(x+6) = 119
2x + 6 + 3x + 18 = 119
5x + 24 = 119
5x = 95, x = 19
Deandre has $19
Kala has 19 + 6 = $25
Eric has 3(25) = $75

Create an equation to solve for x then solve for x.
Ratling [72]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In parallelogram adjacent angles are supplementary

∠U +∠V = 180

9x + 15 + 6x + 15 = 180

Combine like terms

9x + 6x + 15 + 15 = 180

          15x + 30 = 180

Subtract 30 from both sides

          15x = 180 - 30

         15x = 150

Divide both sides by 15

            x = 150/15

x = 10

∠U = 9x + 15

      = 9*10 + 15

      = 90 + 15

∠U = 105

∠V = 6x + 15

     = 6*10 + 15

     = 60 + 15

∠V = 75
