$\frac{x+5}{3} \leq 2$
times both sides by 3
x+5≤6
minus 5 both sides
x≤1

Answer:

x = √17 and x = -√17

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the equation:

$\frac{3}{x + 4} - \frac{1}{x + 3} = \frac{x + 9}{(x^2 + 7x + 12)}$

To solve this we need to remove the denominators.

Then we can first multiply both sides by (x + 4) to get:

$\frac{3*(x + 4)}{x + 4} - \frac{(x + 4)}{x + 3} = \frac{(x + 9)*(x + 4)}{(x^2 + 7x + 12)}$

$3 - \frac{(x + 4)}{x + 3} = \frac{(x + 9)*(x + 4)}{(x^2 + 7x + 12)}$

Now we can multiply both sides by (x + 3)

$3*(x + 3) - \frac{(x + 4)*(x+3)}{x + 3} = \frac{(x + 9)*(x + 4)*(x+3)}{(x^2 + 7x + 12)}$

$3*(x + 3) - (x + 4) = \frac{(x + 9)*(x + 4)*(x+3)}{(x^2 + 7x + 12)}$

$(2*x + 5) = \frac{(x + 9)*(x + 4)*(x+3)}{(x^2 + 7x + 12)}$

Now we can multiply both sides by (x^2 + 7*x + 12)

$(2*x + 5)*(x^2 + 7x + 12) = \frac{(x + 9)*(x + 4)*(x+3)}{(x^2 + 7x + 12)}*(x^2 + 7x + 12)$

$(2*x + 5)*(x^2 + 7x + 12) = (x + 9)*(x + 4)*(x+3)$

Now we need to solve this:

we will get

$2*x^3 + 19*x^2 + 59*x + 60 = (x^2 + 13*x + 3)*(x + 3)$

$2*x^3 + 19*x^2 + 59*x + 60 = x^3 + 16*x^2 + 42*x + 9$

Then we get:

$2*x^3 + 19*x^2 + 59*x + 60 - ( x^3 + 16*x^2 + 42*x + 9) = 0$

$x^3 + 3x^2 + 17*x + 51 = 0$

So now we only need to solve this.

We can see that the constant is 51.

Then one root will be a factor of 51.

The factors of -51 are:

-3 and -17

Let's try -3

p( -3) = (-3)^3 + 3*(-3)^2 + +17*(-3) + 51 = 0

Then x = -3 is one solution of the equation.

But if we look at the original equation, x = -3 will lead to a zero in one denominator, then this solution can be ignored.

This means that we can take a factor (x + 3) out, so we can rewrite our equation as:

$x^3 + 3x^2 + 17*x + 51 = (x + 3)*(x^2 + 17) = 0$

The other two solutions are when the other term is equal to zero.

Then the other two solutions are given by:

x = ±√17

And neither of these have problems in the denominators, so we can conclude that the solutions are:

x = √17 and x = -√17

184500 $ are to be divided between 2 people. One person has 80% of what the other person has. How much does each one receive in

Annette [7]

Given:

$184500 are to be divided between 2 people.

One person has 80% of what the other person has.

To find:

The amount each one receive in $.

Solution:

Let $x be the amount received by first person. Then,

Amount received by the second person = 80% of x

= 0.80x

Total amount = Amount received by first person + by second person

= $x+0.80x$

= $1.80x$

Total amount is 184500. So,

$1.80x=184500$

$x=\dfrac{184500}{1.80}$

$x=102500$

So, the amount received by the first person is $102,500.

$0.80x=0.80\times 102500$

$0.80x=82000$

So, the amount received by the second person is $82,000.

Given cos t = 1/2 tan 0 find sin (t) and sec (t)

777dan777 [17]

Answer:

Sin(t) = $\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2} }$ and $sec(t) =2$

Step-by-step explanation:

The secant function is the reciprocal function of the cosine function. Therefore, given that $sec(t) = \frac{1}{cos(t)}$ then, if $cos(t) = \frac{1}{2}$ then $sec(t) =2$ .

On the other hand, if cos (t) = 1/2 ⇒ t = ± $\frac{\pi}{3}$

Then, the sin( $\frac{\pi}{3}$ ) = $\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2} }$

The length of a rectangle is 3 more inches than the width. Find the length and width of the rectangle is the perimeter of the re

n200080 [17]

Part A:

Let the width of the rectangle be = x inches

As given, the length of a rectangle is 3 more inches than the width so let the length of the rectangle be = x+3 inches

Perimeter is given as = 54 inches

Perimeter = $2(l+b)$

Equation becomes:

$2(x+3+x)$ =54

$2(2x+3)=54$

Part B:

Solving the equation we get

$4x+6=54$

$4x=54-6$

$4x=48$

$x=12$

Hence, the width of the rectangle is 12 inches

Length = x+3 = 12+3 = 15 inches

Hence, length of the rectangle is 15 inches.
