In each of the following pairs represent a pair of equivalent rational numbers, find the values of x.(i) (2/3) and (5/x)(ii) (-3/7) and (x/4)(iii) (3/5) and (x/-25)(iv) (13/6) and (-65/x) |

Answer» (i) Given (2/3) and (5/x) Also given that they are equivalent rational number so (2/3) = (5/x) x = (5 × 3)/2 x = (15/2) (ii) Given (-3/7) and (x/4) Also given that they are equivalent rational number so (-3/7) = (x/4) x = (-3 × 4)/7 x = (-12/7) (iii) Given (3/5) and (x/-25) Also given that they are equivalent rational number so (3/5) = (x/-25) x = (3 × -25)/5 x = (-75)/5 x = -15 (iv) Given (13/6) and (-65/x) Also given that they are equivalent rational number so (13/6) = (-65/x) x = 6/13 x (- 65) x = 6 x (-5) x = -30 |
