PLEASE HELP ME QUICK what is the simplified form of x+9/x+1 + x-2/5?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Ira Lisetskai [31]3 years ago

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

C and D are both wrong for the same reason. The denominator should be (x +1)*5 which means that either A or B is correct.

C and D have an error seldom seen on Brainly. It means that the denominator has been added rather than multiplied but even the addition is a little strange. Frankly, I don't know what has to be done to get either of them.

So the answer is

numerator: 5*(x + 9) +  (x + 1)(x - 2)

denominator: 5*(x + 1)

Simplify the numerator. Remove the brackets.

numerator: 5x + 45 + x^2 - 2x + x - 2               Gather like terms

numerator: x^2 + 5x - 2x + x + 43                      Simplify

numerator: x^2 + 4x + 43

Answer

x^2 + 4x + 43

==========

5(x + 1)

Write 4 feet to 15 inches as a ratio. Compare in inches. Write the ratio in lowest terms.
Alja [10]
1 ft = 12 inches....so 4 ft = (4 * 12) = 48 inches

ratio is : 48 to 15...or 48/15 or 48:15......which reduces to 16/5 in lowest terms

A geometric sequence has an initial value of 2 and a common ratio of 3. Which formula would be more practical to use if you were
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

19th term = ar^18

19th term = 774,840,978

Step-by-step explanation:

First term, a = 2

Common ratio, r = 3

nth term of a geometric sequence = ar^(n-1)

19th term = ar^(19-1)

19th term = ar^18

= 2 × 3^18

= 2 × 387,420,489

= 774,840,978

19th term = 774,840,978

Maggie buys 5 apples and 4 oranges for $10 and Lynn buys 5 apples and 5 oranges for $11. What is the price for an apple and what
nlexa [21]
Make 2 eqn, let a be apples and o be oranges:

1. 5a + 4o = 10
2. 5a + 5o = 11

set up an elimination:
1. minus 2.
5a + 4o = 10
- 5a + 5o = 11
____________
o = 1

sub “o” into one of the eqn

5a + 5(1) = 11
5a = 11-5
5a = 6
a = 6/5
a = 1.2

therefore, an orange costs $1.00 and an apple costs $1.20
