Easy question

Mathematics
1 answer:
Ira Lisetskai [31]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

7/16

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the fraction be x/y

(x+5)/(y+5) = 4/7

7x + 35 = 4y + 20

7x + 15 = 4y

(x-1)/(y-1) = 2/5

5x - 5 = 2y - 2

2y = 5x - 3

7x + 15 = 2(5x - 3)

7x + 15 = 10x - 6

3x = 21

x = 7

2y = 5(7) - 3

2y = 32

y = 16

x/y = 7/16

Divide 12x^4+17^3+8x-40 by x-2
chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

12x^3 + 24x^2 + 48x + 104 + (5081/x-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

12x^4 + 17* (17*17) + 8x -40/ x-2

1. remove the parenthesis

12x^4 + !7 * 17 * 17 + 8x -40 / x-2

2. multiply 17 by 17

12x^4 + 289 * 17 + 8x -= 40 /x-2

3. multiply 289 by 17

12x^ = 4913 + 8x - 40 / x-2

4. move 4913

12x^4 + 8x + 4913 - 40 / x-2

5. subtract 40 from 4913

12x^4 + 8x + 4873 / x-2

6. set up polynomials to be divided. if there is not a term for every exponent, insert one with a value of 0

x-2 into 12x^4 + 0x^3 + 0x^2 + 8x + 4873

7. divide the highest order term  in the dividend 12x^4 by the highest order term in divisor x = 12x^3

8. multiply by new quotient term

12x^3 * x-2 = 12x^4 -24x^3

9. the expression needs to be subtracted from the dividend, so change all the signs in 12x^4 - 24x^3

12x^4 + 0x^3 - 12x^4 + 24x^3

10. after changing the signs, add the last dividend from the multiplied polynomial to find new dividend

+24x^3

11.  pull the next term from the original dividend down into the current dividend

+24x^3 + 0x^2

12.  divide the highest order term in the dividend 24x^3 by the highest order term in divisor x = 24x^2

12x^3 + 24x^2

13. multiply new quotient by the divisor

24x^3 * x-2 = 24x^3 - 48x^2

14. the expression needs to be subtracted from the dividend, so change all the signs in 24x^3 - 48x^2

24x^3 + 0x^2 - 24x^3 + 48x^2

15. after changing the signs, add the last dividend from the multiplied polynomial to find new dividend

+48x^2

16. pull the next terms from the original dividend down to the current dividend

+ 48x^2 + 8x

17. divide the highest order term in the dividend 48x^2 by the highest order term in the divisor = 48x

12x^3 + 24x^2 + 48x

18. multiply the new quotient term by the divisor

48x * x - 2 = 48x^2 - 96x

19. the expression needs to be subtracted from the dividend, so change all the signs in 48x^2 - 96x

-48x^2 + 96x

20. after changing the signs, add the last dividend from the multiplied polynomial to find new dividend

48x^2 + 8x - 48x^2 + 96x

= 104x

21. pull the next terms from the original dividend down to the current dividend

+ 104x + 4873

22. divide the highest order term in the dividend 104x by the highest order term in the divisor x = 104

23. divide the new quotient by the divisor

104 * x -2 = 104x - 208

24. the expression needs to be subtracted from the dividend, so change all the signs in 104x - 208

104x + 4873 - 104x + 208 = 5081

25. the final answer is the quotient plus the remainder over the divisor

12x^3 + 24x^2 + 48x + 104 + (5081 / x - 2)

Which number line shows the solution set for the inequality -4x+7&gt;15
Ira Lisetskai [31]
First, let's simplify the inequality as much as we can:

-4x + 7 > 15
-4x > 8

Divide by -4:
x < -2

5 p + 2(3 p - 5) = -29- 8 p<br> Solve for p ( geometry)
Vika [28.1K]

Step-by-step explanation:

5p + 6p -10 = -29 - 8p

11p - 10 = -29 - 8p

+10 +10 +8p

+8p = -19

19p=-19

p=-1

Karl set out to Alaska in his truck.
Ivenika [448]

Considering the linear function described, 500 liters of fuel were initially in the tank.

<h3>What is a linear function?</h3>

A linear function is modeled by:

y = mx + b

In which:

  • m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.
  • b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0, and can also be interpreted as the initial value of the function.

Researching this problem on the internet and looking at the graph, we have that when x = 0, y = 500, that is, the y-intercept is of 500. From the bullet points, the y-intercept is the initial value, hence 500 liters of fuel were initially in the tank.
