Step-by-step explanation:

as the denominator (x+3) is in both you need only one denominator to be multiplied in first rational number .

<u>2</u><u>x</u><u> </u><u>(</u><u>x-2</u><u>)</u><u>. </u><u> </u><u> </u>+ <u>5</u><u>. </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u>

(x+3) (x-2). (x+3) (x-2)

<u>2</u><u>x</u><u>^</u><u>2</u><u>-</u><u>4</u><u>x</u><u> </u><u>+</u><u>5</u><u> </u>

<u>(</u>x+3) (x-2)

it's cannot be solved after that.

Answer: The simplified expression is

(2x² + x + 15)/(x + 3)(x - 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is

2x/(x+ 3) + 5/(x + 3)(x - 2)

Looking at the denominator, the Lowest common factor is (x + 3)(x - 2). Multiplying through by (x + 3)(x - 2), it becomes

[2x(x - 2) + 5(x + 3)]/(x + 3)(x - 2)

We would simplify by applying the distributive property. Each term inside the bracket is multiplied by each term outside the bracket. It becomes

[2x² - 4x + 5x + 15)]/(x + 3)(x - 2)

= (2x² + x + 15)/(x + 3)(x - 2)

What is the image of(8,12) after a dilation by a scale factor of 1/4 centered at the origin?
max2010maxim [7]
<h3>Answer:  (2, 3)</h3>

=================================================

Explanation:

1/4 = 0.25 is the scale factor

Multiply this with each coordinate of the given point

0.25*8 = 2 is the new x coordinate

0.25*12 = 3 is the new y coordinate

So (8,12) moves to (2,3) after applying the dilation

The scale factor k makes 0 < k < 1 true, so the point is closer to the origin after applying the dilation.

--------

Side note: this trick of multiplying the scale factor by each coordinate only works if the dilation is centered at the origin. For any other center, you'll need to apply a translation first, dilate, then translate back again.

g A researcher wants to construct a 95% confidence interval for the proportion of children aged 8-10 living in Atlanta who own a
Helga [31]

Answer:

The sample size needed is 2401.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of \pi, and a confidence level of 1-\alpha, we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}.

The margin of error of the interval is:

M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

95% confidence level

So \alpha = 0.05, z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975, so Z = 1.96.

Estimate the sample size needed if no estimate of p is available so that the confidence interval will have a margin of error of 0.02.

We have to find n, for which M = 0.02.

There is no estimate of p available, so we use \pi = 0.5

M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

0.02 = 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.5*0.5}{n}}

0.02\sqrt{n} = 1.96*0.5

\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96*0.5}{0.02}

(\sqrt{n})^{2} = (\frac{1.96*0.5}{0.02})^{2}

n = 2401

The sample size needed is 2401.
