Answer: length = 4.5 m, width = 3 m

Step-by-step explanation:

When a shape is enlarged using a scale factor, you simply multiply each of the sides by the scale factor.

length = 3 * 1.5 = 4.5 m

width = 2 * 1.5 = 3 m

Dr. David Smith lived 1/13 of his life as a child. He spent 4/39 of his life preparing for an outstanding

Answer:

40 14/25 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Well, this certainly is fun.

First, to find the fraction of the doctor's life which 13 years represents, subtract the fractions from 1 (and in this case l stands for lifetime):

$13 = (1 - (\frac{1}{13} + \frac{4}{39} + \frac{1}{2}))(l)$

$13 = (\frac{25}{78})(l)$

So, multiply this equation by the reciprocal of 25/78 to isolate one of l:

$13(\frac{78}{25}) = l$

$l = 40\frac{14}{25}$ years

Simplify x+2/x^2+2x-3 divide by x+2/x^2-x

ira [324]

$\dfrac{\frac{x+2}{x^2+2x-3}}{\frac{x+2}{x^2-x}}$

If $x\neq-2$ , then we can immediately cancel the factors of $x+2$ :

$\dfrac{\frac1{x^2+2x-3}}{\frac1{x^2-x}}=\dfrac{x^2-x}{x^2+2x-3}$

Factorize the numerator and denominator:

$x^2-x=x(x-1)$

$x^2+2x-3=(x+3)(x-1)$

Next, if $x\neq1$ , then

$\dfrac{x^2-x}{x^2+2x-3}=\dfrac{x(x-1)}{(x+3)(x-1)}=\dfrac x{x+3}$
