Take -5x + 3x = -2x
because there is a -3x and a 3x they cancel each other out.
and the -17 is left
-2x = -17
divide -2 by -17 = 8.5

Answer:
(f/g)(x) = 1/(2x)
x ≠ 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:

The domain restriction x ≠ 1/2 comes from the requirement to prevent the denominator factor 6x-3 from being zero.
7 1/5:
Multiply the denominator and the whole number: 7*5 = 35 and then add the numerator: 35+1= 36/5. Then, do this for the following fraction, the improper fraction value of 2 2/15 is 32/15.
Now we need 36/5 & 32/15 to have common denominators so that we can simplify it a little less complicated.
For Instance,
36/5*3= 108/15
Now we divide, (108/15)/(32/15)
108/32= 3.375 = 3 3/8
Answer is 3 3/8.
Hope this was easy to understand!
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Rearrange the terms and take out a common factor of 4
4(8x^2 + 2x + 1)
I think this is as far down as you want to take it. It gives an imaginary root which you may not be familiar with.
20% of 60 is 12
60/300 = 20%
The friend is incorrect because that is 20% of 300 not 60
