Answer:

B. \frac{x^2+5x+6}{2x+5}

Step-by-step explanation:

\displaystyle \frac{1}{\frac{1}{x+2}+\frac{1}{x+3}}

Add the fractions in the denominator.

\frac{1(x+3)}{\left(x+2\right)\left(x+3\right)}+\frac{1(x+2)}{\left(x+2\right)\left(x+3\right)}

Denominators are equal, so combine.

\frac{x+3+x+2}{\left(x+2\right)\left(x+3\right)}

Combine like terms.

\frac{2x+5}{\left(x+2\right)\left(x+3\right)}

Back to the problem.

\displaystyle\frac{1}{\frac{2x+5}{\left(x+2\right)\left(x+3\right)}}

Apply fraction rule 1/b/c = c/b

\frac{\left(x+2\right)\left(x+3\right)}{2x+5}

Expand the brackets in the numerator.

\frac{x^2+5x+6}{2x+5}

Answer:

x^2 +5x+6

----------------------

2x+5

Step-by-step explanation:

1

-----------------

1/(x+2) + 1/(x+3)

Multiply by ( x+2) * (x+3) in the numerator and denominator

1 * ( x+2) * (x+3)

-----------------

(1/(x+2) + 1/(x+3)) *( x+2) * (x+3)

Distribute

( x+2) * (x+3)

-----------------

((x+3) + (x+2))

Combine like terms

( x+2) * (x+3)

-----------------

2x+5

Foil the numerator

x^2 +2x+3x+6

---------------------

2x+5

Combine like terms

x^2 +5x+6

----------------------

2x+5

show that the lines x2-4xy+y2=0 and x+y=3 form an equilateral triangle also find area of the triangle
arlik [135]

Given pair of lines are x² + 4xy + y² = 0

⇒ (y/x) ² + 4 y/x + 1 = 0

⇒ y/x = -4±2√3/2 = -2±√3,

∴  The lines y = (-2 + √3) x and y = (-2 - √3) x and x - y = 4 forms an equilateral triangle

Clearly the pair of lines x² + 4xy +y²  = 0  intersect at origin,

The perpendicular distance form origin to x - y = 4 is the height of the

h = 2 √ 2

∵ Area of triangle = h²/√3 = 8/√3

A soccer player stands in the south east corner of a 72 yard x 65 yard field and kick the soccer ball All the way to a player in
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

Using the Pythagorean Theorem:

distance^2 = 72^2 + 65^2

distance^2 = 5,184 + 4,225

distance^2 = 9,409

distance = 97 yards

"round-trip" distance = 97 * 2 = 194 yards

Which of these systems of linear equations has no solution?
Alika [10]

Answer:

A is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

A has no solution because since the slopes are the same, setting both equations equal to each other will cancel out the slopes and result in 8=16, meaning no solution will make both sides equal to each other.

B does have a solution because of different slopes

C does have a solution because of different slopes

D does have a solution because of different slopes

Use the variable x to write the phrase in symbols.
Rudik [331]

Answer:

155 + x^{3} + 14

Step-by-step explanation:

The variable x would represent the number/value we don't know, and in this case, we don't know what number is raised to the third power. This being said, x would represent that number.

The question, although worded a bit confusingly, asks to add 155, the number (x) to the exponent of 3, and 14. Mathematically, this would be 155 + x^{3} + 14.
