Dana is buying Grandparents' Day gifts at the mall. She spends $13.75 on a teacup for her grandmother. She spends 4/5 of that on

marysya [2.9K]

The total money Dana spent in all is $24.75

<h3>Ratio and proportions</h3>

Ratio are written as fractions of two integers. For instance a/b.

Amount spent for grandmother = $13.75

Amount spent on grand father = 4/5 * 13.75

Amount spent on grand father = $11

Take the sum

Total money spent = $13.75 + $11

Total money spent = $24.75

Hence the total money Dana spent in all is $24.75

8/x-5 - 9/x-4 = 5/x^2-9x+20

_______________

Solve the equation:

$\mathsf{\dfrac{8}{x-5}-\dfrac{9}{x-4}=\dfrac{5}{x^2-9x+20}\qquad\qquad(x\ne 5~and~x\ne 4)}$

Reduce the fractions at the left side so that they have the same denominator:

$\mathsf{\dfrac{8(x-4)}{(x-5)(x-4)}-\dfrac{9(x-5)}{(x-4)(x-5)}=\dfrac{5}{x^2-9x+20}}\\\\\\
\mathsf{\dfrac{8x-32}{x^2-4x-5x+20}-\dfrac{9x-45}{x^2-4x-5x+20}=\dfrac{5}{x^2-9x+20}}\\\\\\
\mathsf{\dfrac{8x-32}{x^2-9x+20}-\dfrac{9x-45}{x^2-9x+20}=\dfrac{5}{x^2-9x+20}}\\\\\\
\mathsf{\dfrac{8x-32-(9x-45)}{x^2-9x+20}=\dfrac{5}{x^2-9x+20}}$

Numerators must be equal:

$\mathsf{8x-32-(9x-45)=5}\\\\
\mathsf{8x-32-9x+45=5}\\\\
\mathsf{8x-9x=5+32-45}\\\\
\mathsf{-x=-8}\\\\
\mathsf{x=8}\quad\longleftarrow\quad\textsf{this is the solution.}$

I hope this helps. =)

(x-1)³ find derivative using definition

kakasveta [241]

Step-by-step explanation:

definition of the derivative to differentiate functions. This tutorial is well understood if used with the difference quotient .

The derivative f ' of function f is defined ascthe above pic.

when this limit exists. Hence, to find the derivative from its definition, we need to find the limit of the difference quotient.
