Solve the following equation for x, in terms of a and b. ax = 15 + bx

charle [14.2K]

Value of x will be $x=\frac{15}{a-b}$ .

Equation given in the question → $ax=15+bx$

To find the value of 'x' in terms of a and b, we will simplify the given equation,

$ax=15+bx$

$ax-bx=(15+bx)-bx$

$x(a-b)=15$

$x=\frac{15}{a-b}$

Therefore, Values to filled → Blank 1 = 15

Blank 2 = (a - b)

Somebody please help with this problem

Mrrafil [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that AE=BE and $\angle1\cong \angle2$ .

We can see that angle CEA is vertical angle of angle DEB, therefore, $m\angle CEA=m\angle DEB$ as vertical angles are congruent.

We can see in triangles CEA and DEF that two angles and included sides are congruent.

$\angle 1\cong \angle 2$

$AE=BE$

$\angle CEA\cong\angle DEB$ or $\angle 3\cong \angle 4$

Therefore, $\Delta CEA\cong \Delta DEB$ by ASA postulate.

Since corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent, therefore CE must be congruent to DE.

What is the product of (-a + 3)(a + 4)?

spayn [35]

Answer: The product of (-a + 3)(a + 4) is: -a^2-a+12

Step-by-step explanation:

(-a+3)(a+4) = -a*a-a*4+3*a+3*4

=-a^{2} -4a+3a+12

now just simply combine..

=-a^2-a+12

the answer is -a^2-a+12

7 pizzas, because you would divide 27 by 4 and get 6.75 and then round it up to 7.

Hope this helped :)
