The expressionx^2-9/x2+6x+8 is equal to zero when x = .

Hello !

Answer:

When x = -3 or x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{ {x}^{2}  - 9}{ {x}^{2}  + 6x + 8}  = 0

\Leftrightarrow \frac{ {x}^{2} - 9 }{ {x}^{2}  + 6x + 8}  \times ( {x}^{2}  + 6x + 8) = 0 \times ( {x}^{2}  + 6x + 8)

\Leftrightarrow {x}^{2}  - 9 = 0

\Leftrightarrow(x - 3)(x + 3) = 0

\Leftrightarrow \: x - 3= 0 \: or \: x + 3 = 0

\Leftrightarrow \: x =  3 \: or \: x =  - 3

\boxed{S = {-3 \:  \:  or  \: \: 3}}

The points(0,2) and (4,-10) lie on the same line and the points (-5,-3) and (2,11) lie on another line. Determine by graphing wh
joja [24]
You are asked to do this problem by graphing, which would be hard to do over the Internet unless you can do your drawing on paper and share the resulting image by uploading it to Brainly.

If this were homework or a test, you'd get full credit only if you follow the directions given.

If <span>The points(0,2) and (4,-10) lie on the same line, their slope is m = (2+10)/(-4), or   m =-3.  Thus, the equation of this line is y-2 = -3x, or y = -3x + 2.

If </span><span>points (-5,-3) and (2,11) lie on another line, the slope of this line is:

m = 14/7 = 2.  Thus, the equation of the line is y-11 = 2(x-2), or y = 11+2x -4, or y = 2x + 7.

Where do the 2 lines intersect?  Set the 2 equations equal to one another and solve for x:

</span>y = -3x + 2 = y = 2x + 7.  Then 5x = 5, and x=1.

Subst. 1 for x in y = 2x + 7, we get y = 2(1) + 7 = 9.

That results in the point of intersection (2,9).

Doing this problem by graphing, on a calculator, produces a different result:  (-1,5), which matches D.

I'd suggest you find and graph both lines yourself to verify this.  If you want, see whether you can find the mistake in my calculations.

sue makes 2% commission sales up to $5000. She makes 7.5% commission on sales over $5000. If Sue sold $15000 worth of merchandis
ikadub [295]

Answer:

$1125

Step-by-step explanation:

Since $15,000 is over $5000 the commission is 7.5%

Next you turn the percent into a decimal:

0.075

Now multiply $15,000 by 0.075

Answer = $1125
