QUESTION 1
We want to solve,

We factor the denominator of the fraction on the right hand side to get,

This implies


We multiply through by LCM of


We expand to get,

We group like terms and equate everything to zero,

We split the middle term,

We factor to get,





But

is not in the domain of the given equation.
It is an extraneous solution.

is the only solution.
QUESTION 2

We add x to both sides,

We square both sides,

We expand to get,

This implies,

We solve this quadratic equation by factorization,





But

is an extraneous solution
Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
The length of the side of the small triangle is 4...the side length of the large triangle is 9 (5+4), not 5. It should be correctly written as 4/6 = 9/x
Answer:
x=88° a=+3 b=4a-3
Step-by-step explanation:
as triangles ADE and BCE are congruent by sss axiom
so correponding angles are equal
i.e<AED = <BEC
and <DAE =90-60
=30°
so
62°+x+30°=180°
therefore x=88°
So if the dress is 25% off, that means you are paying 75% of the original price.
sale price = original price x 0.75
225 = original price x 0.75
divide both sides by 0.75 to isolate original price
225/0.75 = (original price x 0.75)/0.75
300 = original price
