The value of x is 5/8.
<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:
Given,
- The lines PQ and RS are parallel to each other.
- slope of PQ= x-1/4
- slope of RS = 3/8
The slopes of parallel lines are equal.
slope of PQ = slope of RS
⇒ x-1/4 = 3/8
⇒ (4x-1)/4 = 3/8
⇒ 8(4x-1) = 4(3)
⇒ 32x-8 = 12
⇒ 32x = 20
x = 20/32
x = 5/8
1/2in = 16 mi
2 3/4 in without whole numbers [(denominator ×whole) + numerator] / denominator
4×2 = 8 +3 = 11/4
Find common denominator for 1/2 and 11/4 (common D Is 4)
Multiply 1/2 by 2/2
2/4 in = 16 mi divide this by 2
2/4 ×1/2 = 1/4
16 /2 = 8
1/4 = 8
1/4 goes into 11/4 11 times
Multiply 8 times 11
88 miles (D)
End zone to end zone is = length so his scale is 6 in and in real life it is 360 ft
To find scale divide 360 by 6
1in = 60 ft (B)
160 ft wide
(divide 160 by 60 ft ) fraction
160/60 is a fraction now simplify
16/6
Common factors of both numbers is 2
Simplify by 2
8/3
Make into whole number fraction
3 goes into 8 two times (2×3=6)(2 becomes whole number) while there's is 2 left over( 8 -6=2) (becoming the numerator)
2 2/3 in (B)
120 ft long
80 ft wide
24 in is scale of "long"
Divide 120 by 24
120÷24=5
So 5in in scale equals 1ft in real life
To find width in scale divide 80 by 5
80/5= 16in (A)
If you have any trouble understanding feel free to let me know I will try to explain as best as I can :)
Assuming they mean the fraction is 24/30 the answer is 0.8 (24÷30 is the equation to use)
(s + 3t) * (2s - 2t) = 2s^2 - 2st + 6ts - 6t^2
