There are 4 girls that the candy must be split between, Maeve and her 3 friends. They each get 5/24 of a pound.
Y - 2 = 1/2 * ( x - 3 )
hope this helps!
To simplify into 1 fraction, remember, we must make the denominator the same
x/ (x-1 ) - 1/ (2-2x)
= -x/ -(1-x) - 1/(2-2x) [see the similarity now? ] [whatever we multiply for the denominator, as long as we multiply to the numerator, it will be ok]
= -2x / -(2-2x) + 1/-(2-2x)
= (-2x+1 )/ -(2-2x)
=(2x-1)/(2-2x)
Answer:

The problem:
Find
if
,
, and
.
Step-by-step explanation:


Replace
in
with
since we are asked to find
:
![\sqrt[3]{x+3}=\sqrt[3]{g(x)+2}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7Bx%2B3%7D%3D%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7Bg%28x%29%2B2%7D)
![\sqrt[3]{x+1+2}=\sqrt[3]{g(x)+2}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7Bx%2B1%2B2%7D%3D%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7Bg%28x%29%2B2%7D)
This implies that 
Let's check:



![\sqrt[3]{(x+1)+2}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B%28x%2B1%29%2B2%7D)
![\sqrt[3]{x+1+2}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7Bx%2B1%2B2%7D)
which is the required result for
.
