Answer:
The end result is -1/(x + 1)
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find the answer to this, we first need to factor the denominator. Since it is a quadratic, we try to find number that multiply to the last term (8) and add to the middle term (9). In this case, the numbers 8 and 1 would work. This allows us to use those numbers in parenthesis along with x as a fully factored form.
x^2 + 9x + 8 = (x + 1)(x + 8)
Now that we have this factored we can take the original equation and factor a -1 out of the top.
(-1)(x + 8)/(x + 1)(x + 8)
Since there is an (x + 8) on the top and bottom, we can cancel those.
-1/(x + 1)
Answer:
1.50x=18
Step-by-step explanation:
you need to figure out how many you can buy, so we will put x in there and it will all equal 18, therefore heres that equal sign. so yeh.

Answer: Choice 2) A, B, C
====================================
Explanation:
Use a calculator to find that,
- 946/32 = 29.5625
- 1157/11 = 105.1818 approximately
- 3524/44 = 80.0909 approximately
- 37392/82 = 456
The first three results have a decimal portion as the answer. So there is a remainder here. The remainder is the leftover bit that couldn't make another full value. Only choice D results in a whole number that isn't a decimal value, so this does not have a remainder.
As a smaller example, let's say we had 20 cookies and 3 people. If we want to divide the cookies evenly, then each person gets 20/3 = 6 full cookies and there would be 2 cookies left over (6*3 = 18 are eaten so 20-18 = 2 is left over). Notice that 20/3 = 6.67 approximately. The non-whole number decimal value indicates we have a remainder. If we had 21 cookies, then each person gets 21/3 = 7 full cookies with nothing left over, so there's no remainder here.
1. 1/5 = x - 9 / x
2. Cross multiply x = 5 (x - 9)
3. Distribute x = 5x - 45
4. Move the variable and change the sign x - 5x = -45
5. Add like terms -4x = -45
6. Divide x = 45 / 4
So the solution is x = 45 / 4 or 11.25
