Answer:

x cannot be 5 or -3.

\frac{x+5}{x+3}

Step-by-step explanation:

The restrictions for a fraction is that the bottom cannot be 0.

So if we find when the bottom is 0 we have found the values that x cannot be.

Let's solve x^2-2x-15=0.

Since the coefficient of x^2 is 1 all we have to do is find two numbers whose product is -15 and whose sum is -2.

Those numbers are -5 and 3 since (-5)(3)=-15 and (-5)+(3)=-2.

So the factored form of the equation is:

(x-5)(x+3)=0

This means either x-5=0 or x+3=0.

We do have to solve both.

x-5=0 can be solved by adding 5 on both sides.

x-5+5=0+5

x+0=0+5

x=5

x+3=0 can be solved by subtracting 3 on both sides.

x+3-3=0-3

x+0=0-3

x=-3

So x can be any number except x=5 or x=-3.

We already factored the bottom as (x-5)(x+3).

The top is a difference of squares, x^2-a^2,

which can be factored as (x-a)(x+a).

So the top factors as (x-5)(x+5).

The fraction can then be written as:

\frac{x^2-25}{x^2-2x-15}=\frac{(x-5)(x+5)}{(x-5)(x+3)}

This can further simplified assuming x is not 5 we can write it as \frac{x+5}{x+3}.  I canceled the common factor of (x-5).

Q1. Find y, if √12 - √147 + y√3 = 0
o-na [289]

Answer:

Q1. y = 5 Q2.  (√2 - √3)/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Q1

√12 - √147 + y√3 = 0

Taking -√147 and √12 to the right hand side, we have

y√3 = √147 - √12

y√3 = √(3 × 49) - √(3 × 4)

y√3 = √3 × √49 - √3 × √4

y√3 = √3 × 7 - √3 × 2

y√3 = 7√3 - 2√3

y√3 = 5√3

Dividing both sides by √3, we have

y√3/√3 = 5√3/√3

y = 5

Q2

Sin45° - Cos30°

Since Sin45° = √2/2 and Cos 30° = √3/2

Substituting these values into the equation, we have

Sin45° - Cos30° = √2/2 - √3/2

Taking L.C.M of both factors, we have

Sin45° - Cos30° = (√2 - √3)/2

Jada solved the equation Negative StartFraction 4 over 9 EndFraction = StartFraction x over 108 EndFraction for x using the step
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

Jada error was he multiplied the equation by (-9/4) to make the coefficient of x one. He should have multiplied it by 108

Step-by-step explanation:

Jada solved the equation

-4/9 = x/108

using the steps below:

-4/9 = x/108

(-4/9)(-9/4) = (x/108)(-9/4)

x = -1/48

Jada should have multiplied through by 108, instead of (-4/9). That was the error he made.

Multiplying through by 108 gives

(-4/9)(108) = (x/108)(108)

-48 = x

x = -48

The answer should have been

x = -48

and not

x = -1/48
