Mathematics
1 answer:
Sliva [168]3 years ago
8 0

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{ {r}^{2}  - 4r + 5}{r - 4}  -  \frac{ {r}^{2}  + 2r - 8}{r - 4}  \\  =  \frac{ ({r}^{2} - 4r + 5) - ( {r}^{2}  + 2r - 8) }{r + 4}  \\  =   \frac{ {r}^{2} -  {r}^{2}  - 4r - 2r + 5 - 8 }{r - 4}  \\  =   \frac{ - 6r - 3}{r - 4}

Use the quadratic formula to find the solutions to the quadratic equation below x^2-6x-5=0
Sonja [21]

Answer:

\large\boxed{x=3-\sqrt{14}\ \vee\ x=3+\sqrt{14}}

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2-6x-5=0\qquad\text{add 5 to both sides}\\\\x^2-6x=5\\\\x^2-2(x)(3)=5\qquad\text{add}\ 3^2\ \text{to both sides}\\\\x^2-2(x)(3)+3^2=5+3^2\qquad\text{use}\ (a-b)^2=a^2-2ab+b^2\\\\(x-3)^2=5+9\\\\(x-3)^2=14\to x-3=\pm\sqrt{14}\qquad\text{add 3 to both sides}\\\\x=3-\sqrt{14}\ \vee\ x=3+\sqrt{14}

The sum of a rational number and an even integer is rational. A) Always True B) Sometimes True C) Usually True D) Never True
SOVA2 [1]
I think that the sum will always be a rational number
let's prove that


<span>any rational number can be represented as a/b where a and b are integers and b≠0

</span>and an integer is the counting numbers plus their negatives and 0
so like -4,-3,-2,-1,0,1,2,3,4....

<span>so, 2 rational numbers can be represented as

</span>a/b and c/d (where a,b,c,d are all integers and b≠0 and d≠0)

their sum is
a/b+c/d=
ad/bd+bc/bd=
(ad+bc)/bd

1. the numerator and denominator will be integers
2. that the denominator does not equal 0

alright
1.
we started with that they are all integers
ab+bc=?
if we multiply any 2 integers, we get an integer
<span>like 3*4=12 or -3*4=-12 or -3*-4=12, etc.
</span>even 0*4=0, that's an integer
the sum of any 2 integers is an integer
like 4+3=7, 3+(-4)=-1, 3+0=3, etc.
so we have established that the numerator is an integer

now the denominator
that is just a product of 2 integers so it is an integer


<span>2. we originally defined that b≠0 and d≠0 so we're good

</span>therefore, the sum of any 2 rational numbers will always be a rational number <span>is the correct answer.</span>

Solve the system of equations.
algol [13]
8x + 5(-4x) = 24
8x - 20x = 24
-12x = 24
x = -2

y = -4(-2)
y = 8

Therefore, the point of intersection is (-2,8).
