The possible values of x are 3 and 7

<h3>Solving rational expressions</h3>

Given the rational expression below;

√60-8x = x - 9

Square both sides to have:

(60-8x)² = (x-9)²

60-8x = x²-18x+81

Equate to zero to have;

x²-18x+81 - 60 + 8x = 0

x² - 10x + 21 = 0

x² -3x-7x +21 = 0

x(x-3)-7(x-3) = 0

x = 3 and 7

Hence the possible values of x are 3 and 7

What is the solution to the inequality 7<=-3x-4

kipiarov [429]

Answer:

The nearest option is -3 (negative 3)

So, Option B is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to solve the inequality $7 \leq -3x-4$

Solving:

Step 1: Switching sides of inequality and reversing the inequality

$-3x-4\geq 7$

Step 2: Adding 4 on both sides

$-3x-4+4\geq 7+4\\-3x\geq 11$

Step 3: Dividing both sides by -3 and reversing the inequality

$\frac{-3x}{-3}\leq \frac{11}{-3} \\x\leq -3.6\\$

The nearest option is -3 (negative 3)

So, Option B is correct.

What expression is equivalent to -3+2/3y-4-1/3y

Neko [114]

Answer:

The simplified form of the given expression is $-7 + (\frac{1}{3})y$

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the given expression is:

$-3 + (\frac{2}{3}) y - 4 - (\frac{1}{3})y$

Now to simplify the given expression, perform operations on LIKE TERMS:

We get:

$-3 + (\frac{2}{3}) y - 4 - (\frac{1}{3})y =( -3 - 4) + [(\frac{2}{3}) y- (\frac{1}{3})y]\\= - 7 + [(\frac{2}{3}) -(\frac{1}{3})]y = -7 + [\frac{2-1}{3}]y\\ = -7 + (\frac{1}{3})y\\ \implies -3 + (\frac{2}{3}) y - 4 - (\frac{1}{3})y = -7 + (\frac{1}{3})y$

Hence the simplified form of the given expression is $-7 + (\frac{1}{3})y$
