\huge \boxed{\mathfrak{Question} \downarrow}

  • \large\sf\frac{1}{5} (4 - 3x) =  \frac{1}{7} (3x - 4) \\

\large \boxed{\mathfrak{Answer \: with \: Explanation} \downarrow}

\frac{1}{5} (4 - 3x) =  \frac{1}{7} (3x - 4) \\

Use the distributive property to multiply 1/5 by 4-3x.

\frac{1}{5}\times 4+\frac{1}{5}\left(-3\right)x=\frac{1}{7}\left(3x-4\right)  \\

Multiply 1/5 and 4 to get 4/5.

\frac{4}{5}+\frac{1}{5}\left(-3\right)x=\frac{1}{7}\left(3x-4\right)  \\

Multiply 1/5 and -3 to get -3/5.

\frac{4}{5}+\frac{-3}{5}x=\frac{1}{7}\left(3x-4\right)  \\

Use the distributive property to multiply 1/7 by 3x-4.

\frac{4}{5}-\frac{3}{5}x=\frac{1}{7}\times 3x+\frac{1}{7}\left(-4\right)  \\

Multiply 1/7 and 3 to get 3/7 & 1/7 × -4 to get -4/7.

\frac{4}{5}-\frac{3}{5}x=\frac{3}{7}x-\frac{4}{7}  \\

Subtract \frac{3}{7}x\\ from both sides.

\frac{4}{5}-\frac{3}{5}x-\frac{3}{7}x=-\frac{4}{7}  \\

Combine -\frac{3}{5}x\\ and -\frac{3}{7}x\\ to get -\frac{36}{35}x\\.

\frac{4}{5}-\frac{36}{35}x=-\frac{4}{7}  \\

Subtract 4/5 from both sides.

-\frac{36}{35}x=-\frac{4}{7}-\frac{4}{5}  \\

The least common multiple of 7 and 5 is 35. Convert -4/7 and 4/5 to fractions with denominator 35.

-\frac{36}{35}x=-\frac{20}{35}-\frac{28}{35}  \\

Because -\frac{20}{35} \\ and \frac{28}{35}\\ have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.

-\frac{36}{35}x=\frac{-20-28}{35}  \\

Subtract 28 from -20 to get -48.

-\frac{36}{35}x=-\frac{48}{35}  \\

Multiply both sides by -\frac{35}{36}\\, the reciprocal of -\frac{36}{35}\\.

x=-\frac{48}{35}\left(-\frac{35}{36}\right)  \\

Multiply -\frac{48}{35}\\ by -\frac{35}{36}\\ by multiplying the numerator by the numerator and the denominator by the denominator.

x=\frac{-48\left(-35\right)}{35\times 36}  \\

Carry out the multiplications in the fraction \frac{-48\left(-35\right)}{35\times 36}\\.

x=\frac{1680}{1260}  \\

Reduce the fraction 1680/1260 to its lowest terms by extracting and cancelling out 420.

\huge \boxed{ \boxed{ \bf \: x=\frac{4}{3}  \approx \: 1.33}}

A student claimed that reflect a triangle in a line, translating a triangle , rotating a triangle, and reflecting it in a point
Nady [450]

If we reflect a triangle in a line, translate a triangle, rotate a triangle, and reflect it in a point result in an image that will be congruent to the original( pre-image) triangle.

This is a problem from triangular geometry. We can solve this problem by following a few steps.

Here a triangle ABC is given and the triangle is at first reflected and then translated, thereafter it rotates and is later reflected.

After all, these processes the value of ∠A, ∠B, and ∠ C remains the same as usual concerning ∠A''', ∠B''', ∠ and C'', as they just changes coordinates not geometric structures.

After all these processes the length of the triangle AB, AC, BD, and A'''B''', B'''C''', C'''A''' remains the same as usual.

∵ We can conclude that ΔABC ≅ ΔA'''B'''C'''

( As AB = A'''B''', BC = B'''C''', ∠ABC = ∠ A'''B'''C''' )
