Answer:
x = 
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
+
= 1
Multiply through by ab to clear the fractions
bx + ax = ab ← factor out x from each term on the left side
x(b + a) = ab ← divide both sides by (b + a)
x = 
Answer:
Nate made a mistake. He should have got 24 as Least common factor.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given number are 8 and 12.
To find the GCF or LCF we have to list multiples.
For LCF
- List the multiples of each number until at least one of the multiples appears on all lists.
- Find the smallest number that is on all of the lists.
- This number is the LCM.
For GCF
- List the multiples of each number until at least one of the multiples appears on all lists.
- Find the Biggest number that is on all of the lists.
- This number is the GCF
The least common multiple of 8 and 12 is 24.
The Greatest common multiply of 8 and 12 is 4.
Hence, Nate is wrong. Nate should have found 24.

Hey there!
In order for two figures to be congruent, each named angle must correspond and be congruent to ONE other angle. If you have ZYV and XWV, Z must be congruent to X as they both show up first in the ordering.
This means...
∠Z≅∠X
∠Y≅∠W
∠V≅∠V
Our first answer option has to do with parallelism, which does not influence if certain angles are congruent or not.
For the second answer option, ∠Z is congruent to ∠X, not ∠Y, so it is incorrect.
For the third answer option, it shows that ∠Z would correspond to ∠V, but it does not, so it is also incorrect.
For D, ∠Z IS congruent to ∠X, and ∠W IS congruent to ∠Y
Therefore, our answer is D) ∠Z≅∠X and ∠W ≅ ∠Y.
I hope this helps!
