Answer:

x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

We can subtract the right side of the equation to get ...

\dfrac{3}{4}x+3-2x-\left(-\dfrac{1}{4}+\dfrac{1}{2}x+5\right)=0\\\\x\left(\dfrac{3}{4}-2-\dfrac{1}{2}\right)+\left(3+\dfrac{1}{4}-5\right)=0\quad\text{collect terms}\\\\-\dfrac{7}{4}x-\dfrac{7}{4}=0\quad\text{simplify}\\\\x+1=0\quad\text{multiply by $-\frac{4}{7}$}\\\\x=-1

Checking by subsitution, we have ...

... (3/4)(-1) +3 -2(-1) = -1/4 +(1/2)(-1) +5

... -3/4 +3 +2 = -1/4 -1/2 +5

... 4 1/4 = 4 1/4 . . . . . answer checks OK

Which of the following is written as a rational function?
Brrunno [24]

We have to identify the rational function among the given functions.

Rational function is a function that is the ratio of two polynomials. It is rational because one polynomial is divided by the other polynomial, like a ratio.

1. Consider the first function G(x)= -2x, since it is not a function that is the ratio of two polynomials. So, it is not a rational function.

2. Consider the second function P(x)= 3x+4, since it is not a function that is the ratio of two polynomials. So, it is not a rational function.

3. Consider the third function Q(x)= x^2-8x+1, since it is not a function that is the ratio of two polynomials. So, it is not a rational function.

4. Consider the fourth function F(x)= \frac{x+2}{5x}, since it is a function that is the ratio of two polynomials (x+2) and (5x). So, it is a rational function.

So, Option D is the correct answer.

David did not notice the multiplication sign between two three-digit numbers and wrote one six-digit number, which is equal to s
IRISSAK [1]

1) We can get that number hit and trial method.

It is said that "two three-digit numbers and wrote one six-digit number, which is equal to seven times their product".

Let us check number 143.

If we write 143 two times without any sign in between , we get 143143 ( a six digit number).

But if we multiply 143 × 143 , we get 20449.

7 times of 20449 equals 143143.

<h3>Therefore, the required three digit number is 143.</h3>

2) Let us assume required prime numbers are a, b and c.

Product of a, b and c= abc.

Sum of a, b and c = a+b+c.

"Their product is five times greater than their sum."

Therefore,

abc = 5(a+b+c)  ----------------------equation (1)

Now, let us take first prime numbers 2 and second 5.

Plugging a=2 and b=5.

2×5×c = 5(2+5+c).

10c = 5(7+c)

10c = 35 +5c.

Subtracting 5c from both sides, we get

10c-5c = 35 +5c-5c.

5c = 35.

Dividing both sides by 5, we get

c=7.

Therefore, first "cool" triple is 2,5,7.

Let us check by taking a=2 and b=7.

Plugging a=2 and b=7 in equation (1), we get

2×7×c = 9(2+7+c).

c=9. But it's not a prime number.

Let us take a=2 and b=11, we get

2×11×c = 11(2+11+c).

c=13   (A prime)

If we take a=2 and b=17, we get

2×17×c = 17(2+17+c).

c=19   (A prime).

<h3>On the same way, if we continue the process, we can get many "cool" triples.</h3>
