Answer:

The reason why it is incorrect to cancel the 4x in the numerator with the 4x in the denominator is because 4x is not a factor of both the numerator and the denominator

Step-by-step explanation:

The denominator of the rational expression, x^2 + 4x - 12 given above is a quadratic equation. It is not factorizable. If we factorize the numerator, 4x - 8, we would have

4 (x - 2).

This means 4x is not a factor of the numerator(4x - 8) and neither is it a factor of the denominator (x^2 + 4x - 12). This is the reason why it is incorrect to cancel the 4x in the numerator with the 4x in the denominator. The factors of the denominator can only be gotten by using the general formula for solving quadratic equations

How do u determine the equation of the line through each pair of points in slope-intercept form (y=mx+b). (3,0) and (2,4) (-6,3)
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

Y =-4X +12

Y =-0.625X  -0.75

Step-by-step explanation:

(3,0) and (2,4)....

x1 y1  x2 y2

3 0  2 4

   

(Y2-Y1) (4)-(0)=   4  ΔY 4

(X2-X1) (2)-(3)=    -1  ΔX -1

   

slope= -4          

B= 12          

   

Y =-4X +12    

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

(-6,3) and (2,-2)​

x1 y1  x2 y2

-6 3  2 -2

   

(Y2-Y1) (-2)-(3)=   -5  ΔY -5

(X2-X1) (2)-(-6)=    8  ΔX 8

   

slope= -  5/8    

B= -  3/4    

   

Y =-0.625X  -0.75

“Find 24% of $240.”<br><br> I keep trying and getting a different answer each time, please help
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

$57.60

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing you want to do is convert 24% to a decimal. To do this you just need to take the current decimal place and move it 2 places to the left. Since this percentage is a whole number the decimal is just after the 4.

(0.24)

Multiply that decimal by the number you want to find the percentage of

$240 * .24 = $57.60
