PLZ HELP FAST Suppose x and y give the populations of two different cities where x >y and y > 0. Compare the expressions and select which of the given pair is greater. X/ x +y (select) x+y /X

(x + y)/x is greater than x/(x + y)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given.

x > y

y > 0

Required

Which is greater?

x/(x + y) or (x + y)/x

Since x is greater than y & y > 0

Then definitely,

x + y > x

By the above analysis:

(x + y)/x is an improper fraction because the numerator (x + y) is greater than the denominator (x)

While

x/(x + y) is a proper fraction because the numerator (x) is lesser than the denominator.

All improper fractions are greater than all proper fractions,

Hence:

(x + y)/x is greater than x/(x + y)

To further explain this:

Take

x = 3 and y = 2

x/(x + y) = 3/(3 + 2) = 3/5 = 0.6

(x + y)/x = (3 + 2)/3 = 5/3 = 1.67

See that (x + y)/x is greater than x/(x + y)

And this is so for all values of x and y

Where x > y and y > 0

-2x + 7 = 7

subtract 7 from both sides.

-2x = 0

divide both sides by -2.

x = 0
