If they are similar, their sides are proportional. The scale factor would be 20/28, which is 5/7.

5/7 = 3x/4x+2
Cross multiply
20x+10 = 21x
subtract 20x on both sides
10 = x

x = 10

Solving Rational Equations. LCD Method. Show work.<br><br><img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B2%7D%7B5x%7D%20%2B%5Cfrac%
Svet_ta [14]

using the LCD method.... well, there are a couple of ways, but let's simply add them up.

well, the denominators are 5x and 2x... so the only LCD will just be 10x, since it's divisible by both, so let's use that one.

\bf \cfrac{2}{5x}+\cfrac{7}{2x}=1\implies \stackrel{\textit{LCD of 10x}}{\cfrac{(2)2~~+~~(5)7}{10x}}=1\implies \cfrac{4+35}{10x}=1\implies \cfrac{39}{10x}=1 \\\\\\ 39=10x\implies \cfrac{39}{10}=x\implies 3\frac{9}{10}=x

Tatiana [17]

Answer:

Sarah

Step-by-step explanation:

For Sarah

Sarah paid $3.84 for 32 ounces of carrots.

32 ounces = $3.84

1 ounce = x

Cross Multiply

x = $3.84/32

x = $0.12

For Sue

Sue paid $5.20 for 40 ounces of carrots.

40 ounces = $5.20

1 ounce = x

Cross Multiply

x = $5.20/40

x = $0.13

Who paid less per ounce?

Sarah paid less per ounce
