What is the missing numerator?

Mathematics
1 answer:
N76 [4]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

  3

Step-by-step explanation:

As with any other addition fact problem, you can isolate the unknown term by subtracting the unwanted constant.

  5/7 +x/6 = 51/42

  x/6 = 51/42 -5/7 . . . . . subtract 5/7 from both sides

  x/6 = 51/42 -30/42 = 21/42 = 1/2 . . . . . complete the subtraction

  x = 6(1/2) = 3 . . . . . . . . multiply by 6

The missing numerator is 3.

_____

<em>Alternate solution</em>

Multiply the equation by 42:

  30 +7x = 51

  7x = 51 -30 = 21 . . . . . subtract 30

  x = 21/7 = 3 . . . . . . . . divide by the coefficient of x

Y=2x+1<br> y=4x-1<br> SHOW YOUR WORK PLEASE
Tanya [424]

Let's solve your system by substitution.

y=2x+1;y=4x−1

Step: Solve y=2x+1for y:

y=2x+1

Step: Substitute2x+1foryiny=4x−1:

y=4x−1

2x+1=4x−1

2x+1+−4x=4x−1+−4x(Add -4x to both sides)

−2x+1=−1

−2x+1+−1=−1+−1(Add -1 to both sides)

−2x=−2

−2x

−2

=

−2

−2

(Divide both sides by -2)

x=1

Step: Substitute1forxiny=2x+1:

y=2x+1

y=(2)(1)+1

y=3(Simplify both sides of the equation)

Answer:

x=1 and y=3

In the trapezoid below, x = [ ? ].<br> 2x+6<br> I<br> 5x=20<br> 4r+2
KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the value of x, we use the mid-segment theorem of trapezoid

The theorem is that the mid-segment is half the sum of the other two segments

We have this as

;

5x - 20 = 1/2(2x + 6 + 4x + 2)

2(5x-20) = 6x + 8

5x -20 = 3x + 4

5x -3x = 4 + 20

2x = 24

x = 24/2

x = 12

PQ¯¯¯¯¯ and PR¯¯¯¯¯ are tangent to ⊙ S. Identify PQ.<br> pls help 30 points
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

Because line PQ and line PR are both tangent to circle S, it would result in them being equal. So first to find PQ, you would have to find the value of variable x. To do this you would set both equations equal to each other and solve

6x - 9 = 2x + 3

-2x       -2x

4x - 9 = 3

    +9   +9

4x = 12

x = 3

Now you have to substitute 3 back into the equation for PQ:

6(3) - 9

18 - 9

= 9

Resulting in PQ = 9, to check your answer, take the value of x (3) and substitute it into PR and you should also get 9

2(3) + 3

6 + 3

= 9
