Answer:

x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Here's your solution

=> (3x - 3)/5 = (2x - 2)/4

=> 4(3x -3) = 5(2x - 2)

=> 12x - 12 = 10x - 10

=> 2x = 2

=> x = 2/2

=> x = 1

hope it helps

Answer:

as mentioned above we have to solve it by cross multiplication.

Step-by-step explanation:

So,

4(3x-3)=5(2x-2)

12x-12=10x-10

12x-10x=-10+12

2x=2

X=2/2=1 Answer

hope it helps!!

A line goes through the origin and the point (6, 14). The point (2, y) is also on the line. Calculate y and justify that your va

guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The key here is knowing that the equation of the line that passes through these points is same

Thus having (6,14) and (0,0), the slope is as follows;

m = y2-y1/x2-x1 = 0-14/0-6 = -14/-6 = 7/3

Now we can use this slope here to get the value of y in the question

All we need to do is tie write the equation of the line for between the points (6,14) and (2,y)

That would be;

7/3 = y-14/1-6

7/3 = y-14/-5

cross multiply;

-35 = 3(y-14)

-35 = -3y + 42

-3y = -35-42

-3y= -77

y = -77/3

y = 77/3

Dorothy and Rosanne are baking cookies for a party. Working alone, Rosanne can finish the cookies in 6 hours. Dorothy can finish

garik1379 [7]

Answer:

It will take them 3.43 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let T denote the total cookies that need to be cocked. Observe that:

If Rosanne finishes the cookies in 6 hours, that means that she can make $\frac{T}{6}$ cookies per hour.
If Dorothy finishes the cookies in 8 hours, that means that she can make $\frac{T}{8}$ cookies per hour.

Then, by 1) and 2), if they work together would we able to make

$\frac{T}{6}+\frac{T}{8}=\frac{8T+6T}{48}=\frac{14}{48}T=\frac{7}{24}T$

cookies per hour.

Therefore, in order to finish the T cookies they will need $\frac{24}{7}\approx3.43 hours$
