Hey there!

Since there are 72 paper clips as compared to 63 paper clips, we can write this as a ratio.
72:63 is considered a ratio. Ratios are a comparison of two things.

72:63 can be further simplified. In order to simplify this, we can divide both numbers by 9.

72 ÷ 9 = 8
63 ÷ 9 = 7

8:7

Thus, the final answer in simplified form is 8:7

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the denominators are like, add the numerators leaving the denominator

= $\frac{x+4+x-1}{x-2}$

= $\frac{2x+3}{x-2}$

We require the denominators to be like before we can add.

factor x² - 4 as a difference of squares

x² - 4 = (x + 2)(x - 2)

Expressing as

$\frac{x^2-6x}{x+2}$ + $\frac{2x-12}{(x+2)(x-2)}$

multiply the numerator/denominator of the first fraction by (x - 2)

= $\frac{(x-2)(x^2-6x)}{(x+2)(x-2)}$ + $\frac{2x-12}{(x+2)(x-2)}$

Expand and simplify the numerators, leaving the denominator

= $\frac{x^3-6x^2-2x^2+12x+2x-12}{(x+2)(x-2)}$

= $\frac{x^3-8x^2+14x-12}{(x+2)(x-2)}$

14 workers, working at the same pace, can lay 36000 bricks in one day. How many workers will be needed to lay 54000 bricks in th

Sindrei [870]

$\bf \begin{array}{ccll} workers&bricks\\ \cline{1-2} 14&36000\\ x&54000 \end{array}\implies \cfrac{14}{x}=\cfrac{36000}{54000}\implies \implies \cfrac{14}{x}=\cfrac{2}{3} \\\\\\ 42=2x\implies \cfrac{42}{2}=x\implies 21=x$
