Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{(3a-b)}{(x-b)}=\frac{1}{(x+1)}\\\\(3a-b)*(x+1)=1*(x-b)\\\\

Use FOIL method

3a*x + 3a*1 - b*x -b*1 = x - b

3ax + 3a -bx - b = x -b

3ax - bx -x + 3a - b = -b

x*( 3a - b - 1) + 3a - b = -b

x*( 3a - b - 1) = - b - 3a + b

x*( 3a - b - 1) = -3a

x=\frac{-3a}{( 3a - b - 1)}

Fill in the missing reasons in the Two-column proof below.

A. Given (This is part of the original problem)
b. Supplementary angles form 180 degrees (The definition of supplementary angles is that two or more angles have a sum of 180 degrees. DC is a straight line and has a measure of 180 degrees)
c. Substitution (Given the two previous statements, they are each equal to 180 degrees. Since 180=180 then you can substitute the angles in the equation.)
d. Subtraction (m<2 is being subtracted)
e. Subtraction postulate (Since the same quantity was being subtracted from each side of the equation, they are still equal)

erma4kov [3.2K]
Equation : 3s + 4p = $26
Answer : 2 sodas and 5 bags of popcorn.
The equation would be 3s + 4p = $26. 3s is the $3 for every soda and 4p is $4 for every bag of popcorn.
Shana bought 2 sodas and 5 bags of popcorn. 3 x 2 is 6 and 5 x 4 is 20 which would equal $26. They also equal to the 7 things because of the 2 sodas and 5 bags.

Which expression is equivalent in to the given expression? Assume the denominator does not equal zero.
marusya05 [52]

The equivalent expression of 14r^4y^6/7r^8y^2 is 2y^4/r^4

<h3>How to determine the equivalent function?</h3>

The expression is given as:

14r^4y^6/7r^8y^2

Start by dividing 14 by 7

2r^4y^6/r^8y^2

Next divide y^6 by y^2

2r^4y^4/r^8

Lastly divide r^4 by r^8

2y^4/r^4

Hence, the equivalent expression of 14r^4y^6/7r^8y^2 is 2y^4/r^4
