what is x/9 = 9/27 help plz

<h3><u>ANSWER</u><u> </u><u>AND</u><u> </u><u>SOLU</u><u>TION</u><u>:</u><u> </u></h3>

SOLVING FOR X

<u>Reduce</u><u> </u><u>first</u><u> </u><u>the</u><u> </u><u>fraction</u><u> </u><u>with</u><u> </u><u>9</u>

$\large \sf = \dfrac{x}{9} = \dfrac{ \cancel9}{ \cancel{27}}$

<u> $\large \sf = \dfrac{x}{9} = \dfrac{1}{3}$ </u>

<u>Now</u><u> </u><u>simpli</u><u>fy</u><u> </u><u>using</u><u> </u><u>cross-multiply</u>

<u> $\large \sf = \dfrac{3x}{9} = 1$ </u>

<u> $\large \sf = 3x = 1 \times 9$ </u>

<u> $\large \sf = 3x = 9$ </u>

<u>Lastly</u><u> </u><u>divide</u><u> </u><u>both</u><u> </u><u>sides</u>

<u> $\large \sf = 3x \div 3 = 9 \div 3$ </u>

<u> $\large \sf = x = 9 \div 3$ </u>

<u> $\large \sf = x = 3$ </u>

<h3><u>FINAL</u><u> </u><u>ANSWER</u><u>:</u></h3>

$\huge \orange{ \underline{ \boxed{ \sf{x = 3}}}}$

To find the distance between her home and her latest position:

According to the question, the diagram is,

Consider the right triangle,

AB=120 km

BC=50 km

To find AC:

Using Pythagoras theorem,

$\begin{gathered} AC^2=AB^2+BC^2_{} \\ =120^2+50^2 \\ =14400+2500 \\ =16900 \\ =130\text{ km} \end{gathered}$

Hence, the distance between the new position and her home is 130 km.
