Simplifying quantity x squared plus 6 x plus 8 end quantity over quantity x plus 2 we get x+4

Option d is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to simplify quantity x squared plus 6 x plus 8 end quantity over quantity x plus 2.

Writing in mathematical form:

$\frac{x^2+6x+8}{x+2}$

Solving:

Factorizing the numerator:

$\frac{x^2+6x+8}{x+2}\\=\frac{x^2+4x+2x+8}{x+2}\\=\frac{x(x+4)+2(x+4)}{x+2}\\=\frac{(x+2)(x+4)}{x+2}\\Cancelling\,\,x+2\,\,forom\,\,numerator\,\,and\,\,denominator:\\=x+4$

So simplifying quantity x squared plus 6 x plus 8 end quantity over quantity x plus 2 we get x+4

Option d is correct.

suppose A and B are complementary angles, m a =(3x+5) and m b= (2x-15). Solve for x and then find m a and m b

vlada-n [284]

2 angles are complementary if the sum of their measures is 90°.

For example if m(P) = 41° and m(Q)=49°, then P and Q are complementary.

Thus A and B are complementary means that m(A)=m(B)=90°:

(3x+5°) + (2x-15°) =90°

5x-10°=90°

5x=100°

x=20°

Thus

m(A)=3x+5°=3* 20°+5°=60°+5°=65°

m(B)=2x-15°=2*20°-15°=40°-15°=25°

The volume of the given trapezoidal prism is 312 cubic units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

To find the volume of a trapezoidal prism, we multiply the area of the trapezoidal surface with the height of the prism.

The area of a trapezoidal surface, $A = \frac{a+b}{2} (h).$
