ATQ

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto \dfrac{1+x}{9+x}=\dfrac{1}{4}[/tex]

  • Using cross multiplication

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto 4(1+x)=1(9+x)[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto 4+4x=9+x[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto 4x-x=9-4[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto 3x=5[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto x=\dfrac{5}{3}[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto x=1.6[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto x=2(approx)[/tex]
