1/2 X plus X -15+1/2 X +100+ X -25 equals 540

Mathematics
1 answer:
Andrew [12]3 years ago

Answer:

1/2 X + X -15 + 1/2 X + 100 + X -25 = 540

1/2x + x + 1/2x + x -15 + 100 -25 = 540

3 x + 60 = 540

3x + 60 - 60 = 540 - 60

3/3x = 480/3

x = 160

Step-by-step explanation:

1/2 X + X -15 + 1/2 X + 100 + X -25 = 540

1/2x + x + 1/2x + x -15 + 100 -25 = 540

3 x + 60 = 540

3x + 60 - 60 = 540 - 60

3/3x = 480/3

x = 160

Two problems here I need solved! I need every step, so please have that with your answers!!
Free_Kalibri [48]
QUESTION 1

We want to solve,

\frac{1}{(x-4)}+\frac{x}{(x-2)}=\frac{2}{x^{2}-6x+8}

We factor the denominator of the fraction on the right hand side to get,

\frac{1}{(x-4)}+\frac{x}{(x-2)}=\frac{2}{x^{2}-4x - 2x+8}.

This implies
\frac{1}{(x-4)}+\frac{x}{(x-2)}=\frac{2}{x(x-4) - 2(x - 4)}.

\frac{1}{(x-4)}+\frac{x}{(x-2)}=\frac{2}{(x-4)(x - 2)}

We multiply through by LCM of
(x-4)(x - 2)

(x - 2) + x(x-4) = 2

We expand to get,

x - 2 + {x}^{2} - 4x= 2

We group like terms and equate everything to zero,

{x}^{2} + x - 4x - 2 - 2 = 0

We split the middle term,

{x}^{2} + - 3x - 4 = 0

We factor to get,

{x}^{2} + x - 4x- 4 = 0

x(x + 1) - 4(x + 1) = 0

(x + 1)(x - 4) = 0

x + 1 = 0 \: or \: x - 4 = 0

x = - 1 \: or \: x = 4

But
x = 4
is not in the domain of the given equation.

It is an extraneous solution.

\therefore \: x = - 1
is the only solution.

QUESTION 2

\sqrt{x+11} -x=-1

We add x to both sides,

\sqrt{x+11} =x-1

We square both sides,

x + 11 = (x - 1)^{2}

We expand to get,

x + 11 = {x}^{2} - 2x + 1

This implies,

{x}^{2} - 3x - 10 = 0

We solve this quadratic equation by factorization,

{x}^{2} - 5x + 2x - 10 = 0

x(x - 5) + 2(x - 5) = 0

(x + 2)(x - 5) = 0

x + 2 = 0 \: or \: x - 5 = 0

x = - 2 \: or \: x = 5

But
x = - 2
is an extraneous solution

\therefore \: x = 5

What must be true of two rational expressions before they can be added?
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

They most have common denominators.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the following two rational expressions:

\frac{p}{a}  , \frac{q}{b}

where p,a,q, b are integers, a and b the denominators are not 0, i.e. a,b\neq 0

We can add rational expressions only if their denominator is same.

That is why we find LCD to be ab.

Then,

\frac{p}{a} +\frac{q}{b} =\frac{pb+qa}{ab}

Let the following two rational expressions:

\frac{p}{a}  , \frac{q}{b}

where p,a,q, b are integers, a and b the denominators are not 0, i.e. a,b\neq 0

We can add rational expressions only if their denominator is same.

That is why we find LCD to be ab.

Then,

\frac{p}{a} +\frac{q}{b} =\frac{pb+qa}{ab}

So, the correct answer is the last option that we can sum rational expressions if they have common denominator.

HELP Solve for x and y
BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

x = 96

y = 66

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of interior angles of the given shape is 360:

x + y + 123 + 75 = 360

x + y + 198 = 360 subtract 198 from both sides

x + y = 162

The angle with the measure 114 and angle y are supplementary so their sum is 180

y + 114 = 180

y = 66 since x + y = 162 we can use this to find the value of x

x = 162 - 66

x = 96
