Simplify. x-2/(x^2+4x-12)

Mathematics

In order to solve this you need to factor the denominator. 
x^2 +4x - 12
I see that 12 is a product of 6 and 2 and 4 and 3 and 1 and 12.
I pick the two products that, when added together, give me the 4x term.
Here it's 6 and two I just need to make one of them a negative.
now put them in this form:
(x + 6)(x-2) 
In the fraction I see that there is an x-2 in the numerator. This can cancel out with the x-2 in the denominator. Now you have 1/x-6 but remember you can never have a zero in the denominator so x can't equal -6. 
And you're done!

Find the value of x and y
tiny-mole [99]
<h3>x = 60</h3><h3>y = 60</h3>

x° + 2y° = 180°   ⇒   2y° = 180° - x°

x° = 60°   {three sides of the same lengh, means three angles=60°}

2y° = 180° - 60°

2y° = 120°

y° = 60°

Please help 5 questions I need help
creativ13 [48]

Answer:

1. <2, <7

2. 58

3. 78

4. a and b

h5. <2 and <7 ( i think this is the same question as the first one)

Step-by-step explanation:

2. 2x + 7 = 123 (you have to make them equal to each other because they are consecutive interior angles)

2x + 7 = 123, subtract 7

2x = 116, divide 2 for both sides to make x by itself

x = 58

3. 78 because of consecutive interior angles
