Answer:

x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

(x² − x − 2) / (x − 2)

Factor the numerator. Using the AC method:

ac = (1)(-2) = -2

Factors of -2 that add up to -1 are -2 and 1

Divide by a and reduce: -2/1 and 1/1

The factors are (x − 2) and (x + 1)

(x − 2) (x + 1) / (x − 2)

Divide:

x + 1

Answer:

(x+1)

Step-by-step explanation:

(x^2-x-2)/(x-2)=(x+1)

Because (x-2)(x+1)=x^2-2x+x-2=x^2-x-2.

Find the measure of angle A

blagie [28]

Answer:

43°

Step-by-step explanation:

(x + 53)° + (x + 74)° + 73° = 180°

(x + 53 + x + 74)° = 180° - 73°

(2x + 127)° = 107°

2x + 127 = 107

2x = 107 - 127

2x = - 20

x = - 20/2

x = - 10

$m\angle A = (x +53)\degree \\\\m\angle A = (-10 +53)\degree \\\\m\angle A = 43\degree \\\\$

Use the distributive property to solve the equation 2(m + 2) = 22. Describe what it means to distribute the 2 to each term insid

Mumz [18]

Answer:

m = 9

It means that you are multiplying each of the values inside the parentheses by 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

2(m + 2) = 22

2m + 4 = 22

2m + 4 - 4 = 22 - 4

2m = 18 -Divide both sides by 2

m = 9

Find the functional values g (-3), g (0), and g (5) for the compound function.

Zinaida [17]

Answer:

$g(-3)=7$

$g(0)=7$

$g(5)=\dfrac15$

Step-by-step explanation:

$g(x) =\begin{cases}7 & \text{if } x \leq 0 \\ \\\dfrac{1}{x} & \text{if } x > 0\end{cases}$

This means:

when x is equal to zero or less than zero, g(x) will always be 7.

when x is more than zero, g(x) is $\frac{1}{x}$

$\implies g(-3)=7$

$\implies g(0)=7$

$\implies g(5)=\dfrac15$

HELP ASAP GIVING BRANLIST 100 POINTS!!!

Sedbober [7]

Rate of change between 1 and 3: find the y values for 1 and 3:

Rate of change = (6-1) / (3-1) = 5/2

Rate of change from 2 and 4:

= (10-3) / (4-2) = 7/2

The rate from 2 to 4 is larger because 7/2 is larger than 5/2
