Answer: (x-5)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression : \frac{3x-15}{x^2-x-20} [Taking as common outside]

\text{Polynomial in numerator=}3x-15=3(x-5)

\text{Polynomial in denominator=} x^2-x-20\\\\=x^2-5x+4x-20\\=-x(x-5)+4(x-5)\\=(x-5)(x+4)

We can see that the greatest common factor (GCF) of the numerator and denominator of given the rational expression = (x-5)

The accompanying data resulted from an experiment in which weld diameter x and shear strength y (in pounds) were determined for
saul85 [17]

Answer:

y hat = 2114.20 + 18.96x

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the least square regression model equation:

y hat = -959.00 + 8.60x

weld diameter x ; shear strength y (in pounds)

1 lb = 0.4536 kg

To express shear strength y in kilogram:

y is multiplied by 0.4536

(y hat × 0.4536) = -959.00 + 8.60x

Divide both sides by 0.4536

(y hat × 0.4536) / 0.4536= (-959.00 + 8.60x) / 0.4536

y hat = 2114.1975 + 18.959435x

y hat = 2114.20 + 18.96x

Consider the following equation.
EastWind [94]

The approximate solution of the above equation is: 55/15 (Option A). This is solved using the quartic formula, not quadratic equation.

<h3>What is the Quartic Formula?</h3>

The quartic formula has up to four various solutions including real and imaginary numbers. Read on for more explanation.

<h3>What is the solution to the above question?</h3>

First we restate the above equation:

x²-3x+2= √(x-2) + 2

Next we remove square roots

x^{4} - 6x³ + 9x² = x - 2

Add two to both sides

→ x^{4} - 6x³ + 9x²+2 = x - 2 +2

→  x^{4} - 6x³ + 9x²+2 = x

Subtract X from both sides

→  x^{4} - 6x³ + 9x²+2 -x = x -x

→  x^{4} - 6x³ + 9x²+2 - x= 0

Using the Quartic formula to solve the fourth order equation:
ax^{4} + bx³ + cx² + dx + e

The resolution of x is given as:

x = 2.691085, 3.346753

Because the fraction nearest to 3.4 is 55/16

hence, the correct answer is Option A.
