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

victus00 [196]

Answer:

85 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

for all right triangles, triangles with a 90 degree angle, the sides are equal to a^{2} + b^{2} = c^{2} where c is the hypotenuse, or the longest side.

so... 40^{2} + 75^{2} = c^{2}

7225 = c^{2}

c= 85

The value of y varies jointly with x and z. If y = 7 when z = 196 and x = 2, find the value of y when x = 3 and z = 336. I will
eimsori [14]

Answer:

18

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

y∞ xz

y=kxz. Where k is constant

When z=196 and x= 2 then y= 7

7=(196)(2)k

7=392k

k=1/56

There fore y=(1/56)xz

When x=3 and z =336

y=(1/56)xz

y=(1/56)(336)(3)

y=18
