Step-by-step explanation:

Let the larger integer be x

Hence, the smaller integer = x-2

Hence,

Reciprocal of the x= 1/x

Reciprocal of x-2= 1/ x-2

Hence. their sum=

\frac{1}{x}  +  \frac{1}{x  - 2}  \\  =  \frac{x - 2 + x}{x(x - 2)} \\  =  \frac{2x - 2}{ {x}^{2}  - 2x}

For each problem, identify any important quantities. If it's a known quantity, write the
Tema [17]

Answer:

We have the problem:

"Clare is in charge of getting snacks for a road trip with her friends and her dog. She has

$35 to go to the store to get some supplies. The snacks for herself and her friends cost

$3.25 each, and her dog's snacks costs $9 each."

In this situation we have two variables:

X =  number of snacks for herself and her friends that she buys. Each one of these costs $3.50

Y = number of snacks for her dog that she buys. Each one of these costs $9.

The total cost, in this case, can be written as:

X*$3.50 + Y*$9

And we know that she has $35 to spend, so she can spend $35 or less in the store, then we have the inequality:

X*$3.50 + Y*$9  ≤ $35

Where we defined all the quantities in the inequality.

yan [13]

we are given with two equations: R=143-0.65a for women and R = 165-0.75a for men. In this prblem we are asked the age of a man when R is equal to 135. In this case, we use the second equation and substitute R with 135. In this case, 135 = 165 - 0.75 a; a is equal then to 40 yrs old. In 2, when x is equal to 4, then 0.5*4 + 3 is equal to 5.

lianna [129]

Since we are dealing with a radical then x - 5 ≥ 0, for real values

x = 4 is less than 5 , hence is not in the domain
