Simplify the ration expression
\frac{3x-6}{x-2}

start by seeing if anything in the numerator or denominator can be factored,
you should notice that you can factor out a 3 from 3x-6 in the numerator

when you do so, the result is
\frac{3 *(x-2)}{x-2}

now, since there is an x-2 in the numerator and denominator, they "cancel" out since

\frac{x-2}{x-2} =1
however, only when x \neq 2
since \frac{0}{0} \neq 1

when you cancel out the x-2, you're left with 3

hence, your answer is C

4vir4ik [10]
Let's call the number of rows 'R' . (Clever ?)

There are (3x -2) trees in each row, and there are 'R' rows,
so the total number of trees is [ R times (3x-2) ].

But the problem told you that the total number of trees is (24x-16).
So
       R(3x - 2) = (24x - 16)

For a quick, happy ending, how about factoring '8' out of the right side:

       R(3x - 2) = 8(3x - 2)

Is it jumping out at you yet ?
If not, then divide each side by (3x - 2) :

     <em>  <u> R      =      8</u></em>

There are eight (8) rows of trees.

Find the surface area of each figure. Round to the nearest hundredth when necessary Please quick and real answers
Vlad1618 [11]

The total surface area of the cone is 542.592 square mm

<h3>Total surface area of a cone</h3>

The formula for calculating the total surface area of a cone is expressed as:

TSA = πr(r + l)

where

r is the radius of the cone

l is the slant of the cone

Given the following parameter

l = 13.6mm

r = 8mm

Substitute

TSA = π(8)(8+13.6)
TSA = 3.14(8)(21.6)

TSA = 542.592 square mm

Hence the total surface area of the cone is 542.592 square mm

<span>In a 30-60-90  triangle the side opposite the 30 degree angle is half the length of the hypotenuse. 
The short leg is </span>the side opposite the 30 degree angle. If the short leg =x, then the hypotenuse = 2x

The ratio of the short leg to the hypotenuse in the given triangle is cos(60°)

&#10;cos(60^o) = \frac{adjacent \ side}{hypotenuse  } =  \frac{x}{2x} = \frac{1}{2}

Answer is C. 1:2
