Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

(x-2)/(x-5)


Discussion:

Factor the numerator and denominator:

x^2 + x - 6 = (x+3)(x-2)

x^2-2x-15 =  (x+3)(x-5)

So  

( x^2 + x - 6) / x^2-2x-15  =   ( (x+3)(x-2) ) / ( (x+3)(x-5) )

Cancelling the (x+3) term in numerator and denominator gives

(x-2)/(x-5)


Regards,  

MrB

Tanya [424]
Let's call the number of elephants x.
x+4x=35
5x=35
x=7
So there are 7 elephants. There are four times as many monkeys.
7×4=28
There are 28 monkeys.

Answer:

- time = 1second

- maximum height = 16m

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the height of a pumpkin t seconds after it is launched from a catapult modelled by the equation

f(t)=-16t²+32t... (1)

The pumpkin reaches its maximum height when the velocity is zero.

Velocity = {d(f(x)}/dt = -32t+32

Since v = 0m/s (at maximum height)

-32t+32 = 0

-32t = -32

t = -32/-32

t = 1sec

The pumpkin reaches its maximum height after 1second.

Maximum height of the pumpkin is gotten by substituting t = 1sec into equation (1)

f(1) = -16(1)²+32(1)

f(1) = -16+32

f(1) = 16m

The maximum height of the pumpkin is 16m
