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)

Consider a triangle ABC like the one below. Suppose that a = 42, b=44, and c= 52. (The figure is not drawn to scale.) Solve the
maksim [4K]

In the triangle , Angle A is 51.1 degrees,  B is 54.5 degrees , C  is 74.4 degrees.

<h3>What is a Triangle ?</h3>

A triangle is defined as a polygon with three sides , three angles and three vertices.

Using the Law of Cosine to solve the Triangle and to determine the value of all the angles

c² = a²+ b² -2abCosC

a = 42 , b=44 , c = 52

52² = 42² + 44² -2 * 42 * 44 cos C

2704 = 1764 + 1936 -3696 cos C

cos C = 0.269

C =74.4 ° (degrees)

Similarly calculating for A and B will give

Angle A is 51.1 degrees

Angle B is 54.5 degrees

What is the range of the function y = StartRoot x + 5 EndRoot?
Aleks [24]

Answer: y≤0

Step-by-step explanation:

Looking at the question, I'm assuming the equation is y=\sqrt{x+5}.

To find the range if this equation, it would be best to know that the graph of a square root looks like. Knowing that x=-5, the graph starts at -5 and then increases slowly to the right. Since there are no restrictions to this equation, the graph goes towards infinity.
