Answer: a
reason:
if you take any of the numbers and plug it in it works
8-5=3 is the remaining half
weekly allowance=2(1÷2) where (1÷2) is 3
2×3=6
The weekly allowance should be 6.
3/(x-1) - 1/(x^2-1) = 5/(x-1)
Subtract 3/(x-1) from both sides
-1/(x^2-1) = 2/(x-1)
Factor x^2 - 1
-1/[(x-1)(x+1] = 2/(x-1)
Multiply by (x-1)(x+1) on both sides
-1 = 2 (x+1)
-1 = 2x + 2
Subtract 2 from both sides
-3 = 2x
Divide by 2 on both sides
-3/2 = x
The bisector of the angle at A (call it AQ) divides the segment BC into segments BQ:QC having the ratio AB:AC. Use this fact to find x.
.. 9:15 = (2x -1):3x
.. 15(2x -1) = 9*3x . . . . . the product of the means equals the product of extremes
.. 30x -15 = 27x
.. 3x = 15
.. x = 5
___
According to the value of x, the bisector AQ divides the triangle into two isosceles triangles: ABQ, ACQ.
