Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1/2x - 3/4 = 3/8 - 5/8x

+ 5/8x                + 5/8x

9/8x - 3/4 = 3/8

         + 3/4   + 3/4

9/8x = 9/8

divide both sides by 9/8

x = 1

6.8x+9.3 = -9.4+3,4(2-5x)<br> 6.8x+9.3 = -9.4+6.8 -17<br> 6.8x+9.3 = -2.6-17x
Advocard [28]

Answer:

x = -0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

From your last step:

6.8x + 9.3 = -2.6 - 17x

We have two terms with x in them on different sides of the equation, so we want to bring the 'x terms' over to the same side.

Add 17x to both sides of the equation.

6.8x + 17x + 9.3 = -2.6

Collect like terms

23.8x + 9.3 = -2.6

Subtract 9.3 from both sides

23.8x = -2.6 - 9.3

23.8x = -11.9

Divide both sides by 23.8

x = -0.5

Explain how to compute 3/4 x 4/5 using one diagram.
Drupady [299]

Answer:

The simplified form of given expression is 3/5.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is

\frac{3}{4}\times \frac{4}{5}

We need to find the product of two factions using diagram.

For 3/4, draw a box and divide it in 4 equal parts by using vertical lines. The  color three parts of it.

For 4/5, draw a box and divide it in 5 equal parts by using horizontal lines. Then color the four parts of it.

Now combined both boxes and shown below.

From the below figure it is clear that

The number of common shaded small boxes =  12

Total number of small boxes = 20

The required fraction is

Fraction=\frac{\text{Number of common shaded small boxes}}{\text{Total number of small boxes}}

Fraction=\frac{12}{20}

Cancel out common factor.

Fraction=\frac{3}{5}

Therefore, the simplified form of given expression is 3/5.

PQR has two known interior angles of 34°, and 80°. △RST has two known interior angles of 24°, and 90°. What can be determined ab
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

△PQR and △RST are not similar.

Step-by-step explanation:

In triangle △PQR, two known interior angles are 34° and 80°. So the measure of third angle is

180-34-80=66

In triangle △RST, two known interior angles are 24° and 90°.

180-24-90=66

Two triangles are similar if their corresponding angles are same and the corresponding sides are proportional.

Since the angles of △PQR and △RST are not same, therefore we can say that the △PQR and △RST are not similar.

Find the perimeter of triangle PQR. Round your answer to the nearest tenth.
BabaBlast [244]
We are given the coordinate of the 3 vertices. From these coordinates we can find the length of the sides using the distance formula and the sum of all the sides will be equal to the perimeter of the triangle.

Side PQ = \sqrt{ (6-(-2))^{2}+  (1-1)^{2} }=8

Side QR = \sqrt{ (4-6)^{2}+ (-3-1)^{2} }=4.5

Side RP = \sqrt{ (2-(-4))^{2}+ (-3-1)^{2} }=7.2

So, the perimeter of the triangle will be 8 + 4.5 + 7.2 = 19.7 

You probably misplaced the digits in option A. The correct answer is 19.7 units.
