Answer:

b.  \frac{x+3}{x-1}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given expression is:

\frac{x^{2}-9 }{(x-1)(x-3)}

Let us factorize the numerator using the formula:

a^{2} -b^{2} =(a+b)(a-b)

\frac{(x+3)(x-3)}{(x-1)(x-3)}

Since x ≠ 3, let us cancel the common factor x - 3 in the numerator and in the denominator.

So, \frac{x^{2}-9 }{(x-1)(x-3)} =\frac{x+3}{x-1}

The scatter plot shows a scuba diver's depth in the ocean. The equation of the trend link shown is y = -3.29x - 10. Predict what
TiliK225 [7]

<u>It's not given a scatter plot not the characteristics of the variables, but it can be safely assumed as shown below</u>

Answer:

<em>The diver's depth will be -42.9 after 30 minutes</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the trend (or best fit line) for the scuba diver's depth in the ocean is:

y = -3.29x - 10

Where y is the diver's depth and x is the time in minutes.

To predict the diver's depth at x=30 minutes, substitute in the equation:

y = -3.29(10) - 10

y = -32.9 - 10

y = -42.9

Since no units are provided for y, the answer is:

The diver's depth will be -42.9 after 30 minutes

Explain why the absolute value of a number will never be negative
aleksandr82 [10.1K]
The absolute value of a number will never be negative because absolute value is the distance from zero, so it will always be positive. For example, you can't be -6 away from 0, you are 6 away from 0.

A triangle has two constant sides of length 5 feet and 7 feet. The angle between these two sides is increasing at a rate of 0.9
o-na [289]

Answer:12.74 ft^2/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Two sides of triangle of sides 5 ft and 7 ft

and angle between them is increasing at a rate of 0.9 radians per second

let \thetais the angle between them thus

Area of triangle when two sides and angle between them is given

A=\frac{ab\sin C}{2}

A=\frac{5\times 7\times \sin \theta }{2}

Differentiate w.r.t time

\frac{\mathrm{d} A}{\mathrm{d} t}=\frac{35\cos theta }{2}\times \frac{\mathrm{d} \theta }{\mathrm{d} t}

at \theta =\frac{\pi }{5}

\frac{\mathrm{d} A}{\mathrm{d} t}=\frac{35\times cos(\frac{\pi }{5})}{2}\times 0.9

\frac{\mathrm{d} A}{\mathrm{d} t}=12.74 ft^2/s
