Mathematics

valina [46]3 years ago

Answer:

x=\frac{b-ac}{a+2} ; a\neq -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply both sides: by <em>x+c</em>

a(x+c)=\frac{b-2x}{x+c} (x+c)

Simplify: a(x+c)=b-2x

Expand: ax+ac=b-2x

Subtract <em>ac</em> from both sides: ax+ac-ac=b-2x-ac

Simplify: ax=b-2x-ac

Add<em> 2x</em> to both sides: ax+2x=b-2x-ac+2x

Simplify: ax+2x=b-ac

Factor <em>ax+2x</em>: x(a+2)

x(a+2)=b-ac

Divide both sides by <em>a+2: </em>\frac{x(a+2)}{a+2} = \frac{b}{a+2} - \frac{ac}{a+2} ; a≠-2

Simplify: x=\frac{b-ac}{a+2} ; a\neq -2

Answer:

x =-35

Step-by-step explanation:

2/5x−3=−17

Add 3 to each side

2/5x−3+3=−17+3

2/5x = -14

Multiply each side by 5/2

5/2 * 2/5x = -14 * 5/2

x = -35

Write the ratio as a fraction in simplest form.<br><br> 10.8 seconds : 36 feet <br><br> (Show work)
vodka [1.7K]

Answer: Ratio as a fraction in simplest form is :

\frac{27}{1}=27

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

10.8 seconds : 36 feet

As we know that

1\ second=\frac{1}{60}\ mile\\\\1\ second=90\ feet

So, we use it :

10.8 seconds : 36 feet

=10.8\times 90\ feet:36\ feet\\\\=972:36\\\\=27:1

Hence, Ratio as a fraction in simplest form is :

\frac{27}{1}=27
