3)The original rational number was 17/12.
4)The age of Ruby and Reshma are 20 and 28 years respectively.
Explanation:
3)Let the numerator be x.
So denominator will be (x - 5)
If we add 5 to numberator then it will be (x + 5)
New number is (x + 5)/(x - 5)=11/6
Solve for X by cross multiplying
6(x + 5)=11(x - 5)
6x + 30=11x - 55
5x=85
x=17
So original rational number was 17/12.
4)The ages of Ruby and Reshma are in the ratio 5:7
So, let the present ages of Ruby and Reshma be 5x and 7x respectively.
Also, it is given that four years from now the ratio of their ages will be 3:4
So, the equation - 5x + 4 / 7x + 3 = 3/4
⇒4(5x+4)=3(7x+4)
⇒20x+16=21x+12
⇒21x−20x=16−12
⇒x=4
⇒5x=20 and 7x=28
The age of Ruby and Reshma are 20 and 28 years respectively.
Answer:
m = - 3 / 4
Step-by-step explanation:
1m + 3/4 = 0
m = - 3 / 4

Answer:
it would be c
Step-by-step explanation:
The square root of 18 is 4.2426, rounded down to the closest whole number is 4. Testing the integer values 1 through 4 for division into 18 with a 0 remainder we get these factor pairs: (1 and 18), (2 and 9), (3 and 6). The factors of 18 are 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18.
Step-by-step explanation:
A slope intercept form: y = mx + b where m = slope and b = y -intercept
A slope of 3/2 is given
So y = 3/2 x + b
To find b:
b = y - mx
A line passes through the point (4, -6)
b = -6 - (3/2)(4)
b = -6 - 6
b = - 12
Answer
Equation in slope intercept form: y = 3/2 x - 12
