1.1<br>Solve the following equations:<br>1.1.1 (x+5)(x-3)=33

schepotkina [342]

Step-by-step explanation:

x²-3x +5x -15=33

x²-3x+5x=33+15

x²-3x+5x=48

x²+2x=48

divide both sides by 2

x²+x =24

x²= 24

x= ✓24

Gary earns $42,990 per year he is paid weekly he currently has a $456 per month car loan payment and he pays $1277 per year for

Ber [7]

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

There are about 52 weeks in a year, 42,990 ÷ 52 = 826.73076 ,

1277 ÷ 12 = 106.41666

826.73076 - 106.41666 = 720.3141

720.3141 - 456 = 264.3141

Show the work of 6.2 +3.4

Musya8 [376]

Answer:

9.6

Step-by-step explanation:

When we are adding decimals we try 2 add them like normal integers, but in the end we add the decimal in the same place as it was in the beginning

so 62+34=96 and there's a decimal in the tenths place so its 9.6

Perform the following operations s and prove closure. Show your work.

nadezda [96]

Answer:

1. $\frac{x}{x+3}+\frac{x+2}{x+5}$ = $\frac{2x^2+10x+6}{(x+3)(x+5)}\\$

2. $\frac{x+4}{x^2+5x+6}*\frac{x+3}{x^2-16}$ = $\frac{1}{(x+2)(x-4)}$

3. $\frac{2}{x^2-9}-\frac{3x}{x^2-5x+6}$ = $\frac{-3x^2-7x-4}{(x+3)(x-3)(x-2)}$

4. $\frac{x+4}{x^2-5x+6}\div\frac{x^2-16}{x+3}$ = $\frac{1}{(x-2)(x-4)}$

Step-by-step explanation:

1. $\frac{x}{x+3}+\frac{x+2}{x+5}$

Taking LCM of (x+3) and (x+5) which is: (x+3)(x+5)

$=\frac{x(x+5)+(x+2)(x+3)}{(x+3)(x+5)}\\=\frac{x^2+5x+(x)(x+3)+2(x+3)}{(x+3)(x+5)} \\=\frac{x^2+5x+x^2+3x+2x+6}{(x+3)(x+5)} \\=\frac{x^2+x^2+5x+3x+2x+6}{(x+3)(x+5)} \\=\frac{2x^2+10x+6}{(x+3)(x+5)}\\$

Prove closure: The value of x≠-3 and x≠-5 because if there values are -3 and -5 then the denominator will be zero.

2. $\frac{x+4}{x^2+5x+6}*\frac{x+3}{x^2-16}$

Factors of x^2-16 = (x)^2 -(4)^2 = (x-4)(x+4)

Factors of x^2+5x+6 = x^2+3x+2x+6 = x(x+3)+2(x+3) =(x+2)(x+3)

Putting factors

$=\frac{x+4}{(x+3)(x+2)}*\frac{x+3}{(x-4)(x+4)}\\\\=\frac{1}{(x+2)(x-4)}$

Prove closure: The value of x≠-2 and x≠4 because if there values are -2 and 4 then the denominator will be zero.

3. $\frac{2}{x^2-9}-\frac{3x}{x^2-5x+6}$

Factors of x^2-9 = (x)^2-(3)^2 = (x-3)(x+3)

Factors of x^2-5x+6 = x^2-2x-3x+6 = x(x-2)+3(x-2) =(x-2)(x+3)

Putting factors

$\frac{2}{(x+3)(x-3)}-\frac{3x}{(x+3)(x-2)}$

Taking LCM of (x-3)(x+3) and (x-2)(x+3) we get (x-3)(x+3)(x-2)

$\frac{2(x-2)-3x(x+3)(x-3)}{(x+3)(x-3)(x-2)}$

$=\frac{2(x-2)-3x(x+3)}{(x+3)(x-3)(x-2)}\\=\frac{2x-4-3x^2-9x}{(x+3)(x-3)(x-2)}\\=\frac{-3x^2-9x+2x-4}{(x+3)(x-3)(x-2)}\\=\frac{-3x^2-7x-4}{(x+3)(x-3)(x-2)}$

Prove closure: The value of x≠3 and x≠-3 and x≠2 because if there values are -3,3 and 2 then the denominator will be zero.

4. $\frac{x+4}{x^2-5x+6}\div\frac{x^2-16}{x+3}$

Factors of x^2-5x+6 = x^2-3x-2x+6 = x(x-3)-2(x-3) = (x-2)(x-3)

Factors of x^2-16 = (x)^2 -(4)^2 = (x-4)(x+4)

$\frac{x+4}{(x-2)(x+3)}\div\frac{(x-4)(x+4)}{x+3}$

Converting ÷ sign into multiplication we will take reciprocal of the second term

$=\frac{x+4}{(x-2)(x+3)}*\frac{x+3}{(x-4)(x+4)}\\=\frac{1}{(x-2)(x-4)}$

Prove Closure: The value of x≠2 and x≠4 because if there values are 2 and 4 then the denominator will be zero.
