Setup an equations:
S = # Scott has read
T = # Teri has read

T = 5S - 3   (3 less than means subtraction but switch term order)
17 = 5S - 3 ( substitute 17 for T because Teri read 17)
4 = S (when you solve the equation)
Therefore, Scott read 4 books.

<span>Scott read 4. Put it this way: x=4. If = 4, then put it into an equation. 5x-3= 17. So, you add three to both sides, then it comes out as this: 5x= 20. Divide by five, and you get x= 4.</span>

Identify the restrictions on the domain of f(x) = x+2/x-3<br> x≠-2<br> x≠2<br> x≠-3<br> x≠3
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

  x ≠ 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The denominator of ...

  f(x) = (x+2)/(x -3)

is zero when x=3, so the function is not defined there. Values of x for which the function is not defined are not part of the domain.

The restriction is: x ≠ 3.

_____

Please note that parentheses are required around numerators and denominators when a rational function is written in plain text. When it is typeset:

  f(x)=\dfrac{x+2}{x-3}

the division bar serves as a grouping symbol. In plain text, we cannot tell where numerator and denominator begin and end unless some other grouping symbol (parentheses) is used.
