The value is x= -5/4

The least common denominator is the smallest number of all the common multiples of the denominators when 2 or more fractions are given.

Given:

1/x = 1/5+ 5/4x

1/x = 4x + 25 / 20x

20= 4x +25

4x= -5

x= -5/4

There are 520 marbles in a jar. The ratio of red to yellow marbles is 3:4 and the ratio of yellow to blue marbles is 2:3. What i

frutty [35]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Change the 2/3 to 4/6

Now the ratio becomes 3:4:6

So the number of each is

3x + 4x + 6x = 520

13x = 520

x = 40

Red = 3*40 = 120

Yellow = 4*40 = 160

Blue = 6 * 40 = 240

Total = 520

The slant asymptote of f(x)=x^2-4x+1/2x-3 is y=1/2x-5/4 <br> t or f

sveta [45]

Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a function is

$f(x)=\frac{x^2-4x+1}{2x-3}$

We are to find the slant asymptote if any for this function

Since numerator is of degree 2 and denominator 1, let us divide and then check

Doing long division we find

$f(x)=\frac{1}{2} [x-\frac{5}{2} ]-\frac{11}{4(2x-3)}$

Thus we find the asymptote y= the quotient obtained i.e

$\frac{1}{2} [x-\frac{5}{2} ]\\=\frac{x}{2} -\frac{5}{4}$

Hence asymptote is

$y=1/2x-5/4$

Statement given is true.
