<h2><u>
PROPORTIONAL EQUATION</u></h2><h3>Exercise</h3>
Apply the means-extremes property of proportions: this allows you to cross multiply:
Apply the distributive property:
Add 24 to both sides:
Substract 3x to both sides
<h3><u>Answer</u>. The value of x = 24.</h3>
4x + 2y = 8 (1)
8x + 4y = -4y (2)
A) Two lines are parallel if they have the same gradient
- putting both equations into the gradient- intercept form ( y = mx + c where m is the gradient)
(1) 4x + 2y = 8
2y = 8 - 4x
y = -2x + 4
(2) 8x + 4y = -4y
<span> </span>8x = -4y - 4y
y =
y = -x
<span>
Thus the gradient of the two equations are different and as such the two lines are not parallel</span>
B) When two lines are perpendicular, the product of their gradient is -1
p = (-2) * (-1)
p = 2
<span> ∴
the two lines are not perpendicular either.</span>
Thus these lines are SKEWED LINES
Answer:
10,500
Step-by-step explanation:
You must divide 52,500 by 5.
5 goes into the 5 in 52,500 one time. 5-5 is 0. 5 doesn't go into 2 so put a 0. 5 goes into 25 five times. 25-25 is 0. 5 goes into 5 one time. subtract and add the zeros at end. And you get 10,500
