Answer:

\frac{-3x^2-7x-4}{x^3-2x^2-9x+18}

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{2}{x^2-9}-\frac{3x}{x^2-5x+6}

Factor x²-9 and x²-5x+6.

\frac{2}{\left(x+3\right)\left(x-3\right)}-\frac{3x}{\left(x-2\right)\left(x-3\right)}

Least common multiple of (x+3), (x-3), (x-2), and (x-3) is (x+3), (x-3), and (x-2).

Adjust the fractions based on LCM.

\frac{2\left(x-2\right)}{\left(x+3\right)\left(x-3\right)\left(x-2\right)}-\frac{3x\left(x+3\right)}{\left(x-2\right)\left(x-3\right)\left(x+3\right)}

Subtract the fractions since denominators are equal.

\frac{2\left(x-2\right)-3x\left(x+3\right)}{\left(x+3\right)\left(x-3\right)\left(x-2\right)}

Expand.

\frac{-3x^2-7x-4}{x^3-2x^2-9x+18}

The fraction can be in factored form.

\frac{-\left(x+1\right)\left(3x+4\right)}{\left(x-2\right)\left(x+3\right)\left(x-3\right)}

guapka [62]

Answer:  The required number of ways is 46200.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that a catering service offers 8 ​appetizers, 11 main​ courses, and 7 desserts.

A banquet committee is to select 7 ​appetizers, 8 main​ courses, and 4 desserts.

We are to find the number of ways in which this can be done.

We know that

From n different things, we can choose r things at a time in ^nC_r ways.

So,

the number of ways in which 7 appetizers can be chosen from 8 appetizers is

n_1=^8C_7=\dfrac{8!}{7!(8-7)!}=\dfrac{8\times7!}{7!\times1}=8,

the number of ways in which 8 main courses can be chosen from 11 main courses is

n_2=^{11}C_8=\dfrac{11!}{8!(11-8)!}=\dfrac{11\times10\times9\times8!}{8!\times3\times2\times1}=165

and the number of ways in which 4 desserts can be chosen from 7 desserts is

n_3=^7C_4=\dfrac{7!}{4!(7-4)!}=\dfrac{7\times6\times5\times4!}{4!\times3\times2\times1}=35.

Therefore, the number of ways in which the banquet committee is to select 7 ​appetizers, 8 main​ courses, and 4 desserts is given by

n=n_1\times n_2\times n_3=8\times165\times35=46200.

Thus, the required number of ways is 46200.

Tamara bought a sweater for $24 before tax.She had a coupon for 1/2 off. The Sales tax rate was 6%.How much did Tamara pay for t
Sliva [168]

Answer:

Tamara paid $22.64 before tax

Step-by-step explanation:

In marketing, a coupon is a ticket or document that can be redeemedfor a financial discount or rebate when purchasing a product.

Let the discounted price = P

The Sales tax rate was 6%

The money Tamara pay for the sweater before including tax will be P which is:

(100 + 6)/100 × P = 24

1.06P = 24

P = 24/1.06

P = 22.64 dollars

The ordered pairs (2, 20) and (3, 40) are solutions to an exponential function. Write the equation for this function.
weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

The exponential function will be  f(x) = 5(2)^{x}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the exponential function is given by f(x) = a(b)^{x} ............ (1)

Now, ordered pairs (2,20) and (3,40) are the solution of the above exponential function. So, they will satisfy the equation.

Now, for the ordered pair (2,20) putting f(2) = 20, we get

20 = a(b)^{2} ............. (2)

Again, for the ordered pair (3,40) putting f(3) = 40, we get

40 = a(b)^{3} ............. (3)

Now, from equations (3) and equation (2) we get,

2 = b

⇒ b = 2.

Now, from equation (2) we get, 20 = a(2)^{2} = 4a

⇒ a = 5

Therefore, the exponential function will be

f(x) = 5(2)^{x} (Answer)
