Answer:
The first option is the correct answer
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
P = 157.5 units
Step-by-step explanation:
I have to rewrite the expressions because they look very confusing.
1) The given fractions to add are:
4p² + 6 2p - 2
------------ + ------------
4p² 10p²
2) The statements to asses are:
<span>A) The least common denominator is 20p
.
B) The first fraction rewritten with the LCD is (20p² +30) / 20p²
C) The second fraction rewritten with the LCD is (4p - 4) / 20p
D) The sum is (24p² -4p +30 ) / 20p² = (12p-2p+15) / 10p^2
E) The sum is a rational expression.
This is the result for each statement.

<span>A) The least common denominator is 20p
FALSE: THE LCD IS 20p², because it the least expression that contains all the prime factors of both denominators: 4p² and 10p.
See that you cannot divide 20p by 4p² but you can divide 20p² by 4p² and 10 p. So, 20p is not a common denominator.
.
B) The first fraction rewritten with the LCD is (20p² +30) / 20p²
TRUE: you get this expression from the first fraction by multiplying both numerator and denominator by 20p² / 4p² = 5:
(4p² + 6)×5 = 20p² + 30
(4p²)×5 = 20p²
=>
20p² + 30
--------------
20p²
C) The second fraction rewritten with the LCD is (4p - 4) / 20p
FALSE: you have to multiply both numerator an denominator by 20p² / 10p = 2p
(2p - 2) × 2p = 4p² - 4p
10p × 2p = 20p²
So, the second fraction rewritten with the LCD is:
4p² - 4p
-----------
20p²
D) The sum is (24p² - 4p +30 ) / 20p² = (12p-2p+15) / 10p²
TRUE
</span>
<span><span> 20p² + 30 4p² - 4p 24p² - 4p + 30
-------------- + --------------- = ----------------------
20p² 20p² 20p²</span>
And when you simplify the last fraction dividing by 2 you get:
12p² - 2p + 15
-----------------------
10p²
E) The sum is a rational expression.
TRUE:
The sum of rational number has the closure property which means that by adding rational expression you will always ge a rational expression.

Answer: y = 14</h3>
===================================
Explanation:
The two angles involving x add up to 180 degrees. This is because they are same side interior angles (and because the horizontal lines are parallel)
So,
(angle BCF) + (angle EFC) = 180
(5x - 66) + (2x + 50) = 180
5x - 66 + 2x + 50 = 180
7x - 16 = 180
7x - 16+16 = 180+16 ... add 16 to both sides
7x = 196
7x/7 = 196/7 .... divide both sides by 7
x = 28
This will be used to help find y
Notice how the angles BCF and ACD are vertical angles, therefore they are congruent or the same measure
angle ACD = angle BCF
9y - 52 = 5x - 66
9y - 52 = 5*28 - 66 ..... replace x with 28 (since x = 28)
9y - 52 = 140 - 66
9y - 52 = 74
9y - 52+52 = 74+52 .... add 52 to both sides
9y = 126
9y/9 = 126/9 .... divide both sides by 9
y = 14
