if a is not equal to b and 1/x+ 1/a= 1/b then x=

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

ab / (a-b) =x

Step-by-step explanation:

1/x+ 1/a= 1/b

Multiply by axb to get rid of fractions

axb(1/x+ 1/a)= 1/b* axb

ab + bx = ax

Subtract bx from each side

ab+bx -bx = ax-bx

ab = ax-bx

Factor out x

ab = x(a-b)

Divide each side by (a-b)

ab / (a-b) = x (a-b)/(a-b)

ab / (a-b) =x

Answer:

length 3 inwidth 2 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Since none of the answer choices match the drawing of the gardener, we assume the question is referring to the drawing of the partner.

The gardener's drawing is 1/4 of actual size. So, in terms of the gardener's drawing, actual size is ...

  gardener's drawing = (1/4)actual size

  actual size = 4(gardener's drawing)

__

The partner's drawing is 1/20 of actual size, so is ...

  partner's drawing = actual size/20 = (4(gardener's drawing))/20

  partner's drawing = (4/20)(gardener's drawing)

  partner's drawing = (gardener's drawing)/5

__

Then the {length, width} of the partner's drawing are ...

  partner's drawing {length, width} = {15 in, 10 in}/5 = {3 in, 2 in}

The partner's drawing has a length of 3 inches and a width of 2 inches.

The fletcher family puts loose change into a jar every evening. Once a month, the family counts the coins and prepares to take it to the bank, but removes all the pennies first. Last month, they found there were 14 more quarters than dimes, and the number of nickels was 8 less than 4 times the number of dimes. If the total value of the nickels, dimes, and quarters was $15.75, how many dimes did they have?

Answers

Answer:

They have 23 dimes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of dimes

1 dime = 0.1 dollar

x dimes = 0.1x dollars

They found there were 14 more quarters than dimes.

No. of quarters = x+14

1 quarter = 0.25 dollar

(x+14) quarter =0.25 (x+14)

The number of nickels was 8 less than 4 times the number of dimes.

So, No. of nickels= 4x-8

1 nickel = 0.05 dollar

(4x-8) nickel = 0.05(4x-8) dollar

The total value of the nickels, dimes, and quarters was $15.75.

So,0.1x+0.25 (x+14)+ 0.05(4x-8)=15.75

x=23

Hence they have 23 dimes

A map is drawn to a scale of 1:50000.The distance between long mountain and plaine des papayes is 17.5 cm on the map.find the actual distance in km.

Answers

Answer:

8.75 km.

Step-by-step explanation:

You can set up a ratio of the map to the actual distance of [tex]\frac{1}{50000}[/tex].

Then, this ratio can be used to cross multiply and divide to get an equivalent ratio for the distance:

[tex]\frac{1}{50000}[/tex]=[tex]\frac{17.5 cm}{x cm}[/tex] By cross-multiplying we have x (in centimeters) = 17.5×50000. This tells us that x = 875,000 cm.

However, the answer asks for the distance in kilometers, so we need to convert it. There are 100,000 centimeters in a kilometer, so by dividing: 875000÷100000=8.75 kilometers.

The origin is contained in the solution set for this system of inequalities
y< 2x + 4

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If we substitute (x, y) = (0, 0) into both inequalities, we have ...

  0 < 2·0 +4   ⇒   0 < 4 . . . true

  0 > -2·0 -2   ⇒   0 > -2 . . . true

The point (0, 0) satisfies both inequalities, so is contained in the solution set.

In a certain Algebra 2 class of 27 students, 5 of them play basketball and 12 of them
play baseball. There are 2 students who play both sports. What is the probability that
a student chosen randomly from the class plays basketball or baseball?

Answers

The probability that a student chosen randomly from the class plays basketball or baseball is 0.56. 

We are able to utilize the equation:

P(B or b) = P(B) + P(b) - P(B and b)

where

B speaks to playing ball

and b speaks about playing baseball.

From the given data, we have:

P(B) = 5/27 (the likelihood of playing ball)

P(b) = 12/27 (the likelihood of playing baseball)

P(B and b) = 2/27 (the likelihood of playing both sports)

Substituting these values into the equation, we get:

P(B or b) = P(B) + P(b) - P(B and b)

= 5/27 + 12/27 - 2/27

= 15/27

= 5/9

Hence, the likelihood that an understudy chosen haphazardly from the course plays ball or baseball is 5/9 or around 0.56.

Answer: [tex]\frac{1}{9}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

When any number has a negative exponent, all the negative exponent is doing is flipping the sides.

When we plug -3 in for x we get [tex]-3^{-2}[/tex].

Now just imagine the -3 in fraction form as [tex]\frac{-3}{1}[/tex]. And all you do now is just flip the sides to get [tex](\frac{1}{-3} )^{2}[/tex]

And now apply the exponent 2 to the 1 and negative 3.

1 to the power of 2 is just 1

-3 to the power of 2 is 9.

The wheels of a car are of radius 40cm each, if the car is travelling at a speed of 66km/h, find the number of revolutions made by each wheel in 20 minutes​

Answers

Answer: Each wheel makes 437.5 revolutions in 20 mins

Step-by-step explanation:

Circumference = 2πr

Given that the radius is 40 cm

Circumference = 2π(40) = 80π cm

Find the distance traveled in 20 mins

Speed = 66 km/h

1 hour = 66 km

Rewrite hour into min

60 min = 66 km

1 min = 66 ÷ 60 = 1.1 km

Rewrite km in cm

1.1 km = 1.1 x 10,000 cm = 110,000 cm

Find the number of revolutions in 20 mins:

1 revolution = 80π cm

Number of revolution = 110,000 ÷ 80π = 437.5

Answer:19.7

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer to 3 significant figures is 19.7

Size of angle YZX for the given measurements of triangle YZX is equal to 19.651°( 3 significant figure).

What is an angle?

" Angle is defined as when two rays meet at one point known as vertex."

Formula used

[tex]sin\theta = \frac{ opposite side }{Hypotenuse}[/tex]

According to the question,

As shown in the figure,

In triangle YXZ,

Angle X = 90 degrees

Opposite side to ∠YZX , XY = 7.7cm

Hypotenuse ,  ZY = 22.3 cm

Substitute the value in the formula to get the value of size of angle YZX,

[tex]sin YZX = \frac{XY}{ZY}[/tex]

⇒[tex]sin YZX = \frac{7.5}{22.3}[/tex]

⇒[tex]sin YZX = 0.3363[/tex]

⇒ [tex]YZX = sin^{-1} (0.3363)[/tex]

∠YZX = 19.651°

Hence, size of angle YZX for the given measurements of triangle YZX is equal to 19.651°( 3 significant figure).

How would you write 4n + 3 as a verbal expression

Answers

4 times a number increased by 3.

When we have a number that appears

right before a variable, it means multiplication.

So 4n means the same thing as 4 times a number.

Remember, n is a variable which is just a

letter that represents any number.

Since we are adding 3 to 4n, we can say

4 times a number increased by 3.

So 4n + 3 can be written as 4 times a number increased by 3.

The product is 4n, then the added +3.

4n + 3

4 × n + 3

So the verbal expression can be said as:

''The product of four times a number 'n' added with 3.''
