X2-7x-18÷x2+8x+12 what is it in lowest terms

1 answer:

5 0

$\dfrac{x^2-7x-18}{x^2+8x+12}=\dfrac{x^2+2x-9x-18}{x^2+6x+2x+12}=\dfrac{x(x+2)-9(x+2)}{x(x+6)+2(x+6)}\\\\=\dfrac{(x+2)(x-9)}{(x+6)(x+2)}=\dfrac{x-9}{x+6}$

PLEASE HELP, WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST IF CORRECT!!!! (08.06 MC) Mike and his friends bought cheese wafers for $2 per packet and choc

maks197457 [2]

Answer:

x = 5 , y = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

You can solve this using substitution.

Let the quantity of cheese wafers be denoted by x and the quantity of chocolate wafers denoted by y

2x + 1y = 25

x + y = 20

These two equations are the answer to part A, (remember to include the above prompt which says what x and y denote).

For part B I used substitution because it was more applicable to the question then addition or elimination.

ACTUAL WORK

Set 2x + 1y = 25 equal to x

x = 25 - y / 2

Replace x with y in the second equation

(25 - y / 2) + y = 20

And solve for y

y = 15

Since we know what y is we can replace y in the second equation and find what x is

x + 15 = 20

Solve for x

x = 5
