The denominator of a rational number is greater than its numerator by 7. If the numerator is increased by 6 and the denominator is decreased by 5, the new rational number obtained is 3/2. Find the original rational number.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

6/13

Step-by-step explanation:

6    +   6    =    12            3

----                    ----    =    ---

13     -   5    =     8            2

Answer 2

Answer:

Original Rational number is = 6/13

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Numerator be : x

Denominator be : x + 7

Now,

Numerator is increased by 6Denominator is decreased by 5the new rational number obtained is 3/2

Numerator = x + 6

Denominator = ( x + 7) - 5

According to the question,

[tex] \displaystyle \: \sf \dashrightarrow \: \frac{x + 6}{(x + 7) \: - 5} = \: \frac{3}{2} [/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle \: \sf \dashrightarrow \: 2(x + 6) \: = 3 \{ \: (x + 7 ) - 5\} \: [/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle \: \sf \dashrightarrow \: 2x \: + 12 \: = \: 3(x + 2)[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle \: \sf \dashrightarrow2x + 12 \: = 3x + 6[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle \: \sf \dashrightarrow \: 2x - 3x \: = \: 6 - 12[/tex]

[tex] \: \: \: \displaystyle \: \sf \dashrightarrow \: - x \: = - 6 \\ \\ \: \: \: \: \: \: \displaystyle \: \bf \dashrightarrow \: x \: = 6[/tex]

Numerator = 6

Denominator = x + 7

= 6 + 7

= 13

Thus ,

[tex]\: \bf { \red{ \underline{\dashrightarrow \: obtained \: rational \: number \: = \: \frac{6}{13} }}}[/tex]

What is the slope of this line?
A) 1
B) 0
C) No slope
D) -2

Answers

Answer:

0

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

The slope is the incline of a line, or how steep it is.

If a slope is positive, it is going upwards, and if it is negative, it will be going downwards.

We see that our line is going horizontally, so answers A and D are incorrect as it is not going diagonally upwards or downwards.

If a line is vertical, it has no slope. Since it is only going up and down and not side to side, there is no slope. However, this line is horizontal, so it still has a slope. Answer C is incorrect.

This line has a slope of B) 0. This is because our line is going side to side, but it isn't going up. So, our slope is just flat, or a slope of zero.

can someone find the domain and range in this graph i’m having trouble

Answers

To find the domain of graph, we notice at the point on the left and the right.

Domain is the set of all x-values, so we perceive in a horizontal line or x-axis.

The first point on left is at x = -1 and the second point on the right is at x = 1.

Since the points are opened and therefore, the Inequality signs can only be > or <.

Therefore, the domain is -1 < x < 1

To find the range, similar to domain but we perceive vertical line or y-axis. Range is the set of all y-values.

We notice that the minimum point is -1 or y = - 1 and maximum point at 1 or y = 1.

Therefore, the range is -1 < y < 1

If four points represent the vertices of a polygon. And the four side lengths are equal, then the polygon must be a square

Answers

The given polygon can be rhombus or square.

Polygon is a two-dimensional closed figure made of straight lines.

There are two polygons with four vertices and four equal sides:

Rhombus:

Four verticesFour equal side lengthsOpposites sides are parallelUnequal diagonalsOpposites angles are equalDiagonals bisect each other at a 90-degree angle.

Square:

Four verticesFour equal side lengthsOpposites sides are parallelEqual diagonalsAll angles are equal to a 90-degreeDiagonals bisect each other at a 90-degree angle

Given:

A polygon with four points representing vertices and four equal lengths

To Find:

Whether given polygon is square or not

Solution:

According to the question polygon given has four vertices and four equal side lengths.

There are two different polygons with four vertices and four equal side lengths, rhombus, and square.

In the question, we are only given vertices and the side lengths of the polygon which simply indicates that the given polygon can be either rhombus or square. But in order to prove the polygon as square, we will need more information regarding the stated polygon.

So from this, we can conclude that the given polygon can be rhombus or square.

Answer:

Mary's mangoes = y + 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's assume that,

→ Mary's mangoes = x

→ Jason's mangoes = y

The information given,

→ Mary has 12 more mangoes than Jason and Jason has y mangoes.

Now we have to,

→ find the mangoes Mary has now.

Forming the equation,

→ Mary's = Jason's + 12

savannah decides to pack hot cocoa mix for her scouting troops next camping trip. she wants to bring enough for the 16 scouts to have 2 cups of hot cocoa each . if the container of hot cocoa mix says to use 3 tablespoons per cup , how many ounces of mix should savannah bring?

Answers

she should bring 48 ounces bc she has 16 scouts and each of them need 2 cups so: 2x16=32 so that means there are 32 cups in total and now you need 3 tbs per cup so: 3x32=96 so that means you will need 96 tbs of mix in total now you transfer units from tbs to ounces and since half an ounce is one tbs you divide by two: 96➗2=48
