The answers are A and C because you need to be able to convert simple decimals like those
Step-by-step explanation:
c/(c - 5) = 4/(c - 4)
By Cross-multiplying,
We have c(c - 4) = 4(c - 5).
=> c² - 4c = 4c - 20
=> c² - 8c + 20 = 0
Since the discriminant is negative,
there are no real solutions for c.
However, there exist complex solutions for c.
Using the Quadratic Formula,
c = [8 ± √(-16)]/2
=> c = 4 ± √(-4)
=> c = 4 ± 4i or c = 4(1 ± i).
Answer:
x = 5.4
Step-by-step explanation:
3/x = 4/7.2
cross-multiply:
4x = 21.6
x = 5.4
This answer is going to be X=-5 because you are solving for X in the parentheses.
