Answer:
{2, 6}
Step-by-step explanation:
w/2w-3=4/w is ambiguous. Did you mean
w 4
---------- = ------ ? If so, please enclose "2w - 3" inside parentheses.
2w - 3 w
Cross multiplying, we get w² = 8w - 12.
Putting this into standard form, we get:
w² - 8w + 12 = 0, which factors into (w - 2)(w - 6) = 0.
The solutions are found by setting each factor = 0 separately and solving the resulting equations for w: {2, 6}.
Answer:
The number is 9.
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets write this as an equation first. We'll substitute the number for the variable <em>x</em>.
80 - 3x = 5x + 8
First, let's add 3x to both sides.
80 - 3x + 3x = 5x + 3x + 8
80 = 8x + 8
Next, let's subtract 8 from both sides.
80 - 8 = 8x + 8 - 8
72 = 8x
Finally, let's divide both sides by 8.
72/8 = 8x/8
9 = x
<em>"x" is 9.</em>
<em>So the secret number is 9.</em>

Answer:
15/4 and 45/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x and y be the numbers
x = 3y
x+ y = 15
Substitute the first equation in to the second equation
3y+y = 15
4y = 15
y = 15/4
x = 3(15/4)
x = 45/4
The two numbers are 15/4 and 45/4
A ratio equivalent to 3/20 can be 6/40 or even 9/60
X + x = 2
1 × 5 = 5
So it would be blank plus blank gives you x=2
Then blank times blank gives you x=5
