Answer:

The values of p in the equation are 0 and 6

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you have to make the denominators the same. to do that, first factor 2p^2-7p-4 = \left(2p+1\right)\left(p-4\right)2p

2

−7p−4=(2p+1)(p−4)

So then the equation looks like:

\frac{p}{2p+1}-\frac{2p^2+5}{(2p+1)(p-4)}=-\frac{5}{p-4}

2p+1

p

−

(2p+1)(p−4)

2p

2

+5

=−

p−4

5

To make the denominators equal, multiply 2p+1 with p-4 and p-4 with 2p+1:

\frac{p^2-4p}{(2p+1)(p-4)}-\frac{2p^2+5}{(2p+1)(p-4)}=-\frac{10p+5}{(p-4)(2p+1)}

(2p+1)(p−4)

p

2

−4p

−

(2p+1)(p−4)

2p

2

+5

=−

(p−4)(2p+1)

10p+5

Since, this has an equal sign we 'get rid of' or 'forget' the denominator and only solve the numerator.

(p^2-4p)-(2p^2+5)=-(10p+5)(p

2

−4p)−(2p

2

+5)=−(10p+5)

Now, solve like a normal equation. Solve (p^2-4p)-(2p^2+5)(p

2

−4p)−(2p

2

+5) first:

(p^2-4p)-(2p^2+5)=-p^2-4p-5(p

2

−4p)−(2p

2

+5)=−p

2

−4p−5

-p^2-4p-5=-10p+5−p

2

−4p−5=−10p+5

Combine like terms:

-p^2-4p+0=-10p−p

2

−4p+0=−10p

-p^2+6p=0−p

2

+6p=0

Factor:

p=0, p=6p

Answer:

The values of <em>p</em> in the equation are <u>0</u> and <u>6</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you have to make the denominators the same. to do that, first factor 2p^2-7p-4 = \left(2p+1\right)\left(p-4\right)

So then the equation looks like:

(p^2-4p)-(2p^2+5)=-(10p+5)

Now, solve like a normal equation. Solve (p^2-4p)-(2p^2+5) first:

(p^2-4p)-(2p^2+5)=-p^2-4p-5

-p^2-4p-5=-10p+5

Combine like terms:

-p^2-4p+0=-10p

-p^2+6p=0

Factor:

p=0, p=6

dexar [7]

Answer:

2h-2=92 and h-2=92-h.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hannah, h, is the older sibling and their ages are consecutive odd integers. This means that Anthony's age will be 2 less than Hannah's, or h-2.

The sum of these would be h+(h-2), giving us the equation h+(h-2)=92.

 

Combining like terms we would have the first correct choice, 2h-2=92.

Our first equation can be transformed, however, to have (h-2) by itself. To do this, we would subtract h from both sides, giving us h-2=92-h.

Match the features of the graph of the rational function.
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

After applying <em>algebraic</em> analysis we find the <em>right</em> choices for each case, all of which cannot be presented herein due to <em>length</em> restrictions. Please read explanation below.

<h3>How to analyze rational functions</h3>

In this problem we have a rational function, whose features can be inferred by algebraic handling:

Holes - x-values that do not belong to the domain of the <em>rational</em> function:

x³ + 8 · x² - 9 · x = 0

x · (x² + 8 · x - 9) = 0

x · (x + 9) · (x - 1) = 0

x = 0 ∨ x = - 9 ∨ x = 1

But one root is an evitable discontinuity as:

y = (9 · x² + 81 · x)/(x³ + 8 · x² - 9 · x)

y = (9 · x + 81)/(x² + 8 · x - 9)

Thus, there are only two holes. (x = - 9 ∨ x = 1) Besides, there is no hole where the y-intercept should be.

Vertical asymptotes - There is a <em>vertical</em> asymptote where a hole exists. Hence, the function has two vertical asymptotes.

Horizontal asymptotes - <em>Horizontal</em> asymptote exists and represents the <em>end</em> behavior of the function if and only if the grade of the numerator is not greater than the grade of the denominator. If possible, this assymptote is found by this limit:

y = \lim_{x \to \pm \infty} \frac {9\cdot x + 81}{x^{2}+8\cdot x - 9}

y = 0

The function has a horizontal asymptote.

x-Intercept - There is an x-intercept for all x-value such that numerator is equal to zero:

9 · x + 81 = 0

x = - 9

There is a x-intercept.

Lastly, we have the following conclusions:

  1. How many holes? 2
  2. One <em>horizontal</em> asymptote along the line where y always equals what number: 0
  3. This function has x-intercepts? True
  4. One <em>vertical</em> asymptote along the line where x always equals what number: 1
  5. There is a hole where the y-intercept should be? False

Laura got a discount of 100 dollars on her purchase of a 5775 bed.What is the percent of decrease?
matrenka [14]
Remember that percent means parts out of 100
x/100

discount is the decrease
so we divide the decrease by the original total and get
100/5775=0.0173
convert to fraction
0.0173/1
make bottom number 100
multiply by 100/100
1.73/100=1.73%
round
2%
