A small bottle costs $14.

To solve the problem, the equation would be this:

 8(4+s)=12s-24

Let <em>s </em>represent a small bottle. Since one large bottle is $4 more than a small one, you would write out <em>(4+s)</em>. Then, multiply it by 8 to find one side of the equation, and get <em>8(4+s)</em>. To write out the right side of the equation, you would write out <em>12s </em>to represent 12 small bottles, and <em />subtract <em />24 from that to represent that 8 large bottles is $24 less than 12 small ones. 

Then, proceed to solve the equation to get the answer of <em>s=14</em>. Because a small bottle is $14, you can check your work by substituting the 14 in replace of <em>s</em>. <em />

For the rational expression 2x^2-7x-15/x^2-25, do both of the following,
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

a. \frac{2x + 3}{x+5}

b. x ≠ -5 (Vertical asymptote) and x ≠ 5 (Hole)

Step-by-step explanation:

Factor the numerator (Grouping):

2x^2 - 7x - 15              

Two numbers that multiply to -30 and add to -7 = -3 and 10

[2x^2 - 10x] + [3x - 15]

(2x + 3)(x - 5)

Factor the denominator (Difference of Two Squares):

x^2 - 25 = (x +5)(x-5)

Factored Expression:

(x - 5) can be factored out of top and bottom as a hole-

\frac{(2x + 3)(x - 5)}{(x + 5)(x - 5)} = \frac{2x + 3}{x+5}

Variable Restrictions:

Denominator ≠ 0

x + 5 = 0\\x = -5

Vertical asymptote at x = -5 ⇒ x ≠ -5

Which system of linear inequalities is represented by the<br> graph?
ElenaW [278]

Answer:

The solution of a linear inequality is the ordered pair that is a solution to all inequalities in the system and the graph of the linear inequality is the graph of all solutions of the system. Graph one line at the time in the same coordinate plane and shade the half-plane that satisfies the inequality
