Hello there,
1/18 + 1/x = 1/2
<span>1/x = 9/18 - 1/18 </span>
<span>1/x = 8/18 = 4/9 </span>
<span>x = 9/4 or 2.25
</span>
Glad to help!

<u>Answer</u>:- No.
<u>Explanation</u> :-
<u>Substitute these numbers in pythagoras theorem to check if the set of numbers is a pythagorean triplet.</u>
<u>Pythagoras theorem</u> :- sq. of hypotenuse (longest side) is equal to the sum of sq.s of other two sides.
<u>Here</u>,
hypotenuse = 12 (as it is the longest side)
and other two sides are 6 and 9.
----> 6^2 + 9^2 = 12^2
----> 36 + 81 = 144
----> 117 = 144
Since, LHS is not equal to RHS, this set of numbers is not a pythagorean triplet.
Answer:
7 hamsters at 5 pesos each and 13 hamsters at 8 pesos each
Step-by-step explanation:
5x + 8y = 139
x + y = 20
x = 20 - y
5x + 8y = 139
5(20 - y) + 8y = 139
100 - 5y + 8y = 139
100 + 3y = 139
3y = 139 - 100
3y = 39
3y/3 = 39/3
y = 13
x + y = 20
x + 13 = 20
x = 20 - 13
x = 7
