The denominator of a fraction is 10 more than its numerator.

Mathematics

The right answer is Option C : 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

The numerator of fraction = x

The denominator of a fraction is 10 more than its numerator.

\frac{x}{x+10}

When 1/3 is added to this fraction,

\frac{x}{x+10}+\frac{1}{3}

the resulting fraction’s denominator is three times the denominator of the original fraction its numerator is 15 less than its denominator

\frac{3(x+10)-15}{3(x+10)}

Therefore, it becomes

\frac{x}{x+10}+\frac{1}{3} = \frac{3(x+10)-15}{3(x+10)}

Taking LCM on left side

\frac{3x+(x+10)}{3(x+10)}=\frac{(3x+30)-15}{3(x+10)}\\\\\frac{3x+x+10}{3(x+10)}=\frac{3x+30-15}{x(x+10)}\\\\\frac{4x+10}{3(x+10)}=\frac{3x+15}{3(x+10)}

Multiplying both sides by 3(x+10)

3(x+10)*\frac{4x+10}{3(x+10)}=\frac{3x+15}{3(x+10)}*3(x+10)\\4x+10=3x+15\\4x-3x=15-10\\x=5

The numerator of original fraction is 5.

The right answer is Option C : 5

Consider the functions f(x) = 3x2, g(x)=1/3x , and h(x) = 3x. Which statements accurately compare the domain and range of the fu
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

all of the functions have a unique range ⇒ answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets revise how to find the domain and the range of the function

- The domain is all values of x that make the function defined

- The range is the set of all output values of a function

∵ f(x) = 3x²

- It is a quadratic function

- There is no values of x make this function undefined

∴ The domain of f(x) is all real numbers

- To find the range calculate the vertex of the function

∵ f(x) = ax² + bx + c

∵ f(x) = 3x²

∴ a = 3 , b = 0 , c = 0

∵ h = -b/2a

∴ h = 0/2(3) = 0/6 = 0

∵ k = f(h)

∴ k = f(0) = 3(0)² = 0

∴ The vertex of the cure is (0 , 0)

∵ k is the minimum value of the parabola

∴ The range of f(x) is all real numbers greater than or equal

  to zero ⇒ (1)

∵ g(x) = 1/3x

- It is a rational function

- to find the values of x which make the function undefined equate

 the denominator by 0

∵ 3x = 0 ⇒ divide both sides by 0

∴ x = 0

∴ The domain of g(x) is all real numbers except zero

∵ We can not put x = 0, then there is no value of g(x) at x = 0

∴ The range of the g(x) is all real number except zero ⇒ (2)

∵ h(x) = 3x

- It is a linear function

∵ There is no values of x make this function undefined

∴ The domain of h(x) is all real numbers

∴ The range of h(x) is all real numbers ⇒ (3)

* From (1) , (2) , (3) the answer is

 all of the functions have a unique range

The red graph is f(x)

The blue graph is g(x)

The green graph is h(x)

When working with the square root of a number, when would you have only a positive answer and when would you have both a positiv
Rama09 [41]
<span>Lets make it clear: You would have a positive answer when the value you are looking for has to be a positive number. On the other hand you would have a positive and a negative answer when you take the square root of something that doesn't have to be positive. it could be either because when a negative number is squared it becomes positive and when a positive number is squared it stays positive as well.</span>
