3y = x - 1...I am going to re-arrange this.....-x + 3y = -1

-x + 3y = -1
x - 2y = 2
---------------add...u will notice that the x's cancel
y = 1

3y = x - 1
3(1) = x - 1
3 = x - 1
3 + 1 = x
4 = x

solution is (4,1)

What is the difference? StartFraction x 5 Over x 2 EndFraction minus StartFraction x 1 Over x squared 2 x EndFraction StartFract

Troyanec [42]

The difference of the given fraction is expressed as $\frac{x^2+4x-1}{x(x+2)}$

Given the expression:

$\frac{x+5}{x+2}-\frac{x+1}{x^2+2x} \\$

Take the LCM of the fraction to have:

$=\frac{x+5}{x+2}-\frac{x+1}{x(x+2)} \\=\frac{x(x+5)-(x+1)}{x(x+2)} \\=\frac{x^2+5x-x-1}{x(x+2)}\\=\frac{x^2+4x-1}{x(x+2)}$

Hence the difference of the given fraction is expressed as $\frac{x^2+4x-1}{x(x+2)}$

What is the area of the figure? A.234 in.^2 B.315 in.^2 C.225 in.^2 D.252 in.^2

saul85 [17]

Let's imagine we enclosed the entire shape in a 15 inch wide, 21 inch tall rectangle, area 315 sq inches.

From that rectangle we have to take away the 3x6 bottom left corner, and a strip 21-6=15 inches long and 3 inches wide on the right.

A = 15×21 - 3×6 - 3×15 = 315 - 63 = 252 sq in

Answer: D. 252 inches squared, last choice
