Add 2 to both sdies
now if we can facor, then if
xy=0 then x and/or y=0
note:xy=x times y and x(y) =x times y
x^2+3x+2=0
what 2 number multiply to get 2 and add to get 3
the numbers are 2 and 1
(x+2)(x+1)=0
set them to zero
x+2=0
subtract 2
x=-2
x+1=0
subtract 1
x=-1
x could be -1 or -2
x=-2, or -1
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
The question relates to dividing a fraction by proper and another fraction
The given expression is presented as follows;

We rearrange the fractions as improper fractions for easier division as follows;


Therefore, we have;


Answer: the first term of the series is 128
Step-by-step explanation:
In a geometric sequence, the consecutive terms differ by a common ratio. The formula for determining the sum of n terms, Sn of a geometric sequence is expressed as
Sn = a(1 - r^n)/(1 - r)
Where
n represents the number of term in the sequence.
a represents the first term in the sequence.
r represents the common ratio.
From the information given,
r = 1/4 = 0.25
n = 4
S4 = 170
Therefore, the expression for the sum of the 4 terms, S4 is
170 = a(1 - 0.25^4)/(1 - 0.25)
170 = a(1 - 0.00390625)/(1 - 0.25)
170 = a(0.99609375)/(0.75)
170 = 1.328125a
a = 170/1.328125
a = 128
The function is undefinded if the denominator, x-5, equals 0.
So

.
The domain is

.
In interval notation, this is (-infinity, 5) u (5, infinity).
