Why is the answer A? Plz explain.

Mathematics
1 answer:
emmasim [6.3K]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

the answer cannot be 5. Why? Because the minimum will occur when 12 and 5 point in opposite directions like both are on the x axis pointing to 0 from the east and pointing to zero coming from the west.

12 - 5 = 7

You cannot get a result less than that.

11 more than four times a number is 39
Aliun [14]

Hello!

Your answer is: 7

(X = "<em>A number</em>")

<em>"11 more than four times a number is 39"</em> in equation form is: 4X + 11 = 39

to solve, first subtract 11 from both sides:

4X = 28

then divide both sides by 4 to get:

X = 7

I hope this helps, and have a nice day!

I need to find the least common denominator of x+2/x^2+2x-3 , x-7/x^2+5x+6
grin007 [14]

Answer:

(x + 3)(x - 1)(x + 2)  

Step-by-step explanation:

The fractions are:  

\dfrac{x + 2}{x^{2} + 2x - 3} \text{ and } \dfrac{x - 7}{x^{2} + 5x + 6}

Factor each denominator  

x^{2} + 2x - 3 = (x + 3)(x - 1)\\x^{2} + 5x + 6 = (x + 3)(x + 2)

We must find the least common multiple of the denominators.  We take the maximum power of each separate factor.

      Factors of first fraction = (x + 3) × (x - 1)

Factors of second fraction = (x + 3)             × (x + 2)

                                   LCM = (x + 3)(x - 1)(x + 2)

The lowest common denominator of the two fractions is (x + 3)(x - 1) (x + 2).

Can you help me with this problem: Elena and Jada both read at a constant rate, but Elena reads more slowly. For every 4 pages t
Paraphin [41]

4 pages Elena = 5 pages Jada

To figure out how many pages Jada reads if Elena reads 1, divide 5 by 4: 1.25. This means that for every 1 page Elena reads, Jada reads 1.25 pages.

So if Elena reads 9 pages, multiply 1.25 by 9: 11.25 pages that Jada reads.

For S pages read by Elena, this is a variable, so I’m assuming it means for every S pages, Jada reads 1.25S
