Answer:

  x = 3.6

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle bisector divides the triangle proportionally.

The base segment to the right of the bisector is 6-x, so we can write the proportion ...

  x/6 = (6-x)/4

Multiplying by 12, we get ...

  2x = 3(6 -x)

  5x = 18 . . . . . add 3x

  x = 18/5 . . . .  divide by 5

  x = 3.6

_____

<em>Alternate solution</em>

Since the base of the triangle is given as a left-part and a sum-of-both-parts, we can write the proportion the same way:

  left-part / sum-of-both-parts = x/6 = 6/(6+4)

Then the solution is x = 6(6/10) = 36/10 = 3.6.

Doing it this way avoids having x on both sides of the equation, so makes solving the equation be "one step."

Which number completes the inequality? 2/3
umka2103 [35]

Answer: it’s 3/4

Step-by-step explanation: you have to make the Denominator equal for all of them In order to be able to compare. So if you make the denominator equal to 36 you then have to multiply the numerator by the same number you did for the denominator. Once doing that you will find that 24/36 < 27/36 < 28/36

3x/4=6/5 solve the equation for x
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

x = 8/5

Step-by-step explanation:

3x/4 = 6/5

15x = 24 (Use the common denominator 20. After everything is under 20, it doesn't really matter if you have it in the equation.)

x = 24/15

x = 8/5
