The numerator of the given fraction is 4 less than the denominator. If 5 is added to both numerator and denominator, the resulting fraction is equivalent to 5/7 . What is the original fraction? hlp!!!

5/9

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the denominator be k and thus numerator be 4 less than k or k - 4.

Fraction = (k - 4)/k

If 5 is added to both:

=> (k-4 + 5)/(k + 5) = 5/7

=> 7(k + 1) = 5(k + 5)

=> 7k + 7 = 5k + 25

=> 2k = 18

=> k = 9

Thus,

Fraction is (k-4)/k = (9-4)/9 = 5/9

answer: option a.

step-by-step explanation:

you know that the quadrilateral opqr ( a four sided figure) is inscribed in circle. this means that all its vertices are on the circle.

then, by definition, the opposite angles of the quadrilateral are supplementary, this means that the sum of their measures is 180 degrees.

you can observe in the figure that the angles ∠opq   and the angle ∠orq   are opposite, therefore:

then, can be used to d to calculate the measure of ∠opq
