It's not necessary that either one represents a proportional
relationship. But if either one does, then the other one doesn't.
They can't both represent such a relationship.
The graph of a proportional relationship must go through
the origin. If one of a pair of parallel lines goes through
the origin, then the other one doesn't. (If two parallel lines
both went through the origin, then they would both be the
same line.)
Answer:
Here is something you can study.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: Exact Form: x = 7/2
Decimal Form: x = 3.5
Mixed Number Form: x = 3 1/2
How to: <u>
Solve for x by simplifying both sides of the equation, then isolating the variable.</u>
Have a great day and stay safe !
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We first need to bring x up into the numerator. I will find common denominators by multiplying both sides by each denominator.
This will eliminate both denominators and leave me with
after I simplify the parenthesis.
Now I will solve the equation for x by subtracting 9x from both sides.
Then divide by the coefficient of 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.
