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

Find the coordinates of the point (x,y,z)(x,y,z) on the plane z=2x+3y+3z=2x+3y+3 which is closest to the origin.
Ainat [17]
The vector equation of the line through the origin perpendicular to the plane is
.. (x, y, z) = t(2, 3, -1)
so the point of interest will satisfy
.. 2(2t) +3(3t) -(-t) = -3
.. 14t = -3
.. t = -3/14
and its coordinates are (x, y, z) = (-3/7, -9/14, 3/14)

Hey there! :D

By looking at the graph, and how the question states the x-axis and the y-axis are correlated:

the correct answer is "C". Point W is stating the unit price per pound, which is 2.50. 

I hope this helps!

Is the relation a function? If so why or why not? {(-3,2),(-1,0),(1,0),(5,-2)}
Anastasy [175]

Answer:

It's a function

Step-by-step explanation:

Functions can only have one output for each input. And since all the x values for each point are different, there is only one output (y-value) for each input(x-value).
