Mathematics
1 answer:
xeze [42]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

x =(5/3)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is \frac{2}{3(x-2)}  = -2

Now to simplify it,

The first step is to cross multiply.

So, the expression becomes

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

or, -1  = 3x - 6

⇒  3x = -1 + 6

⇒ 3x = 5 , or x =(5/3)

Using long division to find the quotient, what changes do you first
lora16 [44]

Answer:

\frac{125x^3 - 8}{5x - 2} = 25x^2 + 10x +4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Dividend = 125x^3 - 8

Divisor = 5x - 2

Required

Determine the quotient

See attachment for complete process.

First, divide 125x^3 by 5x

\frac{125x^3}{5x} =25x^2

Write 25x^2 at the top

Multiply 5x - 2 by 25x^2

= 125x^3 - 50x^2

Subtract from 125x^3 - 8

i.e.

125x^3 - 8 - (125x^3 - 50x^2) = 50x^2 - 8

Step 2:

Divide 50x^2 by 5x

\frac{50x^2}{5x} = 10x

Write 10x at the top

Multiply 5x - 2 by 10x

= 50x^2 - 20x

Subtract from 50x^2 - 8

i.e.

50x^2 - 8 - (50x^2 - 20x) = 20x - 8

Step 3:

Divide 20x by 5x

\frac{20x}{5x} = 4

Write 4 at the top

Multiply 5x - 2 by 4

= 20x - 8

Subtract from 20x - 8

i.e.

20x - 8 - (20x - 8) = 0

Hence:

\frac{125x^3 - 8}{5x - 2} = 25x^2 + 10x +4

During rush hour, Geoffrey counted that he had to stop at 8 different red lights. He went through a total of 25 intersections. W
omeli [17]
I think the answer is 32% because if you turn 32% into a decimal (which would be 0.32) then multiply it by 25 you would get 8. Which then means if he stopped 8 times and went through 25 intersections then he stopped at 32% of the intersections. I hope this helps :)
