Answer:
3.5
Step-by-step explanation:
These are similar triangles.
BC:AC = BD:AD
6:5 is the ratio.
Then, simply multiply:
4.2 x 5/6 = 3.5
So, x = 3.5!
1/9 x 12 is 4/3 or 1.333 repeated
Let x and y be the 2 parts of 15 ==> x + y=15 (given)
Reciprocal of x and y ==> 1/x +1/y ==> 1/x + 1/y = 3/10 (given)
Let's solve 1/x + 1/y = 3/10 . Common denominator = 10.x.y (reduce to same denominator)
==> (10y+10x)/10xy = 3xy/10xy ==> 10x+10y =3xy
But x+y = 15 , then 10x+10y =150 ==> 150=3xy and xy = 50
Now we have the sum S of the 2 parts that is S = 15 and
their Product = xy =50
Let's use the quadratic equation for S and P==> X² -SX +P =0
Or X² - 15X + 50=0, Solve for X & you will find:
The 1st part of 15 is 10 & the 2nd part is 5
Answer:
(6, -4)
Step-by-step explanation:
The ice cream shop should be between the school and hospital.
Your equation for number one is 600,788,188/760,507,625 = x/100
After cross multiplying you will get 760,507,625x = 60,078,818,800
Then you will divide by <span>760,507,625 to isolate the varible to get 78.99 = x.
Your equation in number two is 80/143 = x/100 because when you subtract 143 by 63 you get 80, the amount of males in the room. Then you cross multiply to get, 143x = 8000. Then you would divide both sides by 143 to isolate the varible to get 55%</span>
