Answer:

3rd option

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{3x^2-3}{x^2-5x+4} ( factorise numerator and denominator )

3x² - 3 ← factor out 3 from each term

= 3(x² - 1²) ← x² - 1 is a difference of squares and factors in general as

a² - b² = (a - b)(a + b)

x² - 1

= x² - 1²

= (x - 1)(x + 1) , then

3x² - 3 = 3²(x - 1)(x + 1) ← in factored form

--------------------------------

x² - 5x + 4

consider the factors of the constant term (+ 4) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (- 5)

the factors are - 1 and - 4 , since

- 1 × - 4 = + 4 and - 1 - 4 = - 5 , then

x² - 5x + 4 = (x - 1)(x - 4)

then

\frac{3x^2-3}{x^2-5x+4} = \frac{3(x-1)(x+1)}{(x-1)(x-4)} ← in factored form

N equation of a line through (0, 2) which is perpendicular to the line y=3x+3y=3x+3 has slope
zhannawk [14.2K]
Something's not quite right here.  What do you mean by "N?"

I could and will make assumptions regarding what you meant.  (Feel free to correct me if need be.)

Find the equation of a line through (0,2) <span>which is perpendicular to the line y=3x+3.  To find the slope of this perpendicular line, take the negative reciprocal of 3 (the slope of the given line).  It is -1/3.

Using the point-slope form of the equation of a straight line:

y = (-1/3)x + 2 (answer)</span>

The area of a rectangle is 216 square inches. If the perimeter is 60 inches, find the length and width of the rectangle
mojhsa [17]

A=Lw

P=2L+2w

216=Lw

W=216/L...substitute to Perimeter equation

60=2L+2(216/L)

60L=2L^2 + 432

2L^2-60L+432=0

2(L^2 - 30L + 216)=0

2(L-18)(L-12)=0

L=12, W=18 or L=18, W=12

aliina [53]

Answer:

es la c

Step-by-step explanation:

Explicación paso a paso:ya que para que de 0 tiene que ser un número negativo, tiene que ser el número inverso a 2/3, entonces n= -2/3 que tiene el mismo valor absoluto que  2/3
