4/(x+1) = 3/x + 1/15
Should we make common denominators with everything, we get
4*15*x / [15x(x+1)] = 3*15*(x+1)/[15x(x+1)] + x(x+1)/[15x(x+1)]
Multiply both sides of the equation by the denominator to cancel them
60x = 45(x+1) + x(x+1)
60x = 45x + 45 + x^2 + x
x^2 - 14x + 45 = 0
(x-9)(x-5) = 0
The answer to this question is that the solutions are x=9 and x=5.
34% is the correct answer
Step-by-step explanation:
The quadratic equation is x² + (p - 5)x + 2q = 0.
By Vieta's Formula,
we have SOR = -b/a and POR = c/a.
=> (-3) + (6) = -(p - 5) and (-3)(6) = 2q.
=> 3 = 5 - p and -18 = 2q
Hence, p = 2 and q = -9.
Alternate Method:
We have (x + 3) and (x - 6) as factors of the quadratic equation x² + (p - 5)x + 2q = 0.
=> (x + 3)(x - 6) = x² - 3x - 18.
By Comparing Coefficients,
(p - 5) = -3 and 2q = 18.
Hence p = 2 and q = -9.
Answer: Therefore, his son and daughter got Rs 200.
Step-by-step explanation:
6 kg of rice = 75*6 = Rs 450
2 packets of oil = RS 2*125 = RS 250
now total money he spent = Rs 450 + Rs 250 + Rs Rs 3,300
= Rs 700 + Rs 3,300
= Rs 4000
Money left = Rs 4,400-Rs 4000 = Rs 400
so
400/2 = Rs 200
