Answer:

D. h=7

Step-by-step explanation:

1               2            16

------ + ------------ = ----------

h-5        h+5          (h^2 -25)

1               2            16

------ + ------------ = ----------

h-5        h+5          (h-5)(h+5)

Since h^2 -25 factors in (h-5) (h+5)  ( it is the difference of squares)

We will multiply both sides by  (h-5) (h+5)  to clear the fractions

(h-5) (h+5)              2 (h-5) (h+5)            16 (h-5) (h+5)

------              + ------------                     = ----------

h-5                   h+5                                (h-5)(h+5)

Canceling like terms

 (h+5)              2 (h-5)             16

------              + ------------      = ----------

1                         1                          1

h+5 + 2(h-5) = 16

Distribute

h+5 + 2h -10 = 16

Combine like terms

3h-5=16

Add 5 to each side

3h-5+5 =16+5

3h =21

Divide each side by 3

3h/3 = 21/3

h = 7

I am thinking of a number. i will add four and then multiply it by five. the answer will be thirty five. whats the number?
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

B. 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's make an equation for this. Our unknown number is x.

x

We are adding 4.

x + 4

Then multiplying by 5.

(x + 4) • 5

It will equal 35.

(x + 4) • 5 = 35

To solve this, divide both sides by 5.

(x + 4) = 7

Now subtract 4 from both sides.

x = 3

This is your answer.

Check this by plugging it back into our original equation.

(x + 4) • 5 = 35

(3 + 4) • 5 = 35

7 • 5 = 35

35 = 35

Your answer is correct.

Hope this helps!

the length of a rectangular patio is 8 feet less than twice its width. the area of the patio is 280 square feet. find the dimens
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

The length of the rectangle 'l' = 20

The width of the rectangle 'w' = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Explanation</u>:-

Let 'x' be the width

Given data the length of a rectangular patio is 8 feet less than twice its width

2x-8 = length

The area of rectangle = length X width

Given area of rectangle = 280 square feet

x(2x-8) = 280

2(x)(x-4) =280

x(x-4) =140

x^2 -4x -140=0

x^2-14x+10x-140=0

x(x-14)+10(x-14)=0

(x+10)(x-14) =0

x = -10 and x = 14

we can choose only x =14

The width of the rectangle 14

The length of the rectangle 2x-8 = 2(14)-8 = 28 -8 =20

The length of the rectangle 'l' = 20

The width of the rectangle 'w' = 14
