Answer:

x = 2 1/6 (13/6)

Step-by-step explanation:

to solve the proportion you must first find the LCF or least common factor

that is 6

so turn 8/3 into 16/6 by multiplying it by 2/2

x + 3/6 = 16/6

then you subtract 3/6 from both sides

x = 13/6

x is 2 1/6

Answer:

1.06x

Step-by-step explanation:

The original price of a carrot cake is represented by x.

Emily increased the price of carrot cakes at her bakery by 6%.

We need to find an expression that represents the price of a carrot cake after the increase.

Price = x+6% of x

$=x+\dfrac{6}{100}x\\\\=x+0.06x\\\\=1.06x$

Hence, the required equation is "1.06x".

The second angle of a triangular kite is four times as large as the first. The third angle is 15 degrees more than the sum of th

frutty [35]

Let's set the first angle as x, the second angle is then 4x, and the third angle is (x+4x)+15, which is 5x+15
the three angles make a sum of 180: x+4x +5x+15=180
10x=165
x=16.5
the second angle is 4x=4*16.5=66

Simplify f+g / f-g when f(x)= x-4 / x+9 and g(x)= x-9 / x+4

steposvetlana [31]

$f(x)=\dfrac{x-4}{x+9};\ g(x)=\dfrac{x-9}{x+4}\\\\f(x)+g(x)=\dfrac{x-4}{x+9}+\dfrac{x-9}{x+4}=\dfrac{(x-4)(x+4)+(x-9)(x+9)}{(x+9)(x+4)}\\\\\text{use}\ a^2-b^2=(a-b)(a+b)\\\\=\dfrac{x^2-4^2+x^2-9^2}{(x+9)(x+4)}=\dfrac{2x^2-16-81}{(x+9)(x+4)}=\dfrac{2x^2-97}{(x+9)(x+4)}\\\\f(x)-g(x)=\dfrac{x-4}{x+9}-\dfrac{x-9}{x+4}=\dfrac{(x-4)(x+4)-(x-9)(x+9)}{(x+9)(x+4)}\\\\\text{use}\ a^2-b^2=(a-b)(a+b)\\\\=\dfrac{x^2-4^2-(x^2-9^2)}{(x+9)(x+4)}=\dfrac{x^2-16-x^2+81}{(x+9)(x+4)}=\dfrac{65}{(x+9)(x+4)}$

$\dfrac{f+g}{f-g}=(f+g):(f-g)=\dfrac{2x^2-97}{(x+9)(x+4)}:\dfrac{65}{(x+9)(x+4)}\\\\=\dfrac{2x^2-97}{(x+9)(x+4)}\cdot\dfrac{(x+9)(x+4)}{65}\\\\Answer:\ \boxed{\dfrac{f+g}{f-g}=\dfrac{2x^2-97}{65}}$
