Answer:

22.38 miles per gallon is the fuel economy of the car.

Step-by-step explanation:

The fuel economy of the car is modeled by the function f(s) = -0.009s² + 0.699s + 12

Where s = speed of the car measured in miles per hour.

Now we have to find the fuel economy of the car when it travels at an average of 20 miles an hour.

Now we plug in the value of s = 20 miles per hour in the given function

f(20) = -0.009(20)² + 0.699(20) + 12

= -3.6 + 13.98 + 12

= 22.38 miles per gallon

Therefore, at the speed of 20 miles and hour fuel economy of the car will be 22.38 miles per gallon.

What two rational expressions sum to 2x+3/x^2-5x+4

Anni [7]

Answer:

$\frac{2x + 3}{(x- 1)(x - 4)} = \frac{-5}{3(x- 1)} + \frac{11}{3(x - 4)}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the rational expression: $\frac{2x + 3}{x^2 - 5x + 4}$ , to express this in simplified form, we would need to apply the concept of partial fraction.

Step 1: factorise the denominator

$x^2 - 5x + 4$

$x^2 - 4x - x + 4$

$(x^2 - 4x) - (x + 4)$

$x(x - 4) - 1(x - 4)$

$(x- 1)(x - 4)$

Thus, we now have: $\frac{2x + 3}{(x- 1)(x - 4)}$

Step 2: Apply the concept of Partial Fraction

Let,

$\frac{2x + 3}{(x- 1)(x - 4)}$ = $\frac{A}{x- 1} + \frac{B}{x - 4}$

Multiply both sides by (x - 1)(x - 4)

$\frac{2x + 3}{(x- 1)(x - 4)} * (x - 1)(x - 4)$ = $(\frac{A}{x- 1} + \frac{B}{x - 4}) * (x - 1)(x - 4)$

$2x + 3 = A(x - 4) + B(x - 1)$

Step 3:

Substituting x = 4 in $2x + 3 = A(x - 4) + B(x - 1)$

$2(4) + 3 = A(4 - 4) + B(4 - 1)$

$8 + 3 = A(0) + B(3)$

$11 = 3B$

$\frac{11}{3} = B$

$B = \frac{11}{3}$

Substituting x = 1 in $2x + 3 = A(x - 4) + B(x - 1)$

$2(1) + 3 = A(1 - 4) + B(1 - 1)$

$2 + 3 = A(-3) + B(0)$

$5 = -3A$

$\frac{5}{-3} = \frac{-3A}{-3}$

$A = -\frac{5}{3}$

Step 4: Plug in the values of A and B into the original equation in step 2

$\frac{2x + 3}{(x- 1)(x - 4)} = \frac{A}{x- 1} + \frac{B}{x - 4}$

$\frac{2x + 3}{(x- 1)(x - 4)} = \frac{-5}{3(x- 1)} + \frac{11}{3(x - 4)}$

Answer:

The answer to your question is: B and D are correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that the sum of the internal angles in a triangle equals 180°.

The sum of supplementary angles equals 180°

Then

(6x + 1) + (4x + 5) + [180 - (8x + 30)] = 180

6x + 1 + 4x + 5 + [180 - 8x - 30] = 180

10x + 6 + 150 - 8x = 180

2 x = 180 - 156

2x = 24

x = 24/2

x = 12

∠JKL = 4(12) + 5 = 48 + 5 = 53

∠KJL = 6(12) + 1 = 72 + 1 = 73

∠KLJ = 180 - 73 - 53 = 54

∠KLM = 126
