Answer: Simplified form is \frac{4z+3}{z+2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

\frac{12z^2-7z-12}{3z^2-2z-8}

We need to simplify the above expression:

1) First we split the numerator :

12z^2-7z-12=0\\\\12z^2-16z+9z-12=0\\\\4z(3z-4)+3(3z-4)=0\\\\(4z+3)(3z-4)=0

Now,

2) we will split the denominator:

3z^2+2z-8=0\\\\3z^2+6z-4z-8=0\\\\3z(z+2)-4(z+2)=0\\\\(3z-4)(z+2)=0

Now, we will rewrite numerator and denominator in fraction form:

\frac{(4z+3)(3z-4)}{(z+2)(3z-4)}\\\\\text{Cancel out the common term i.e. 3z-4}\\\\=\frac{4z+3}{z+2}

Hence, simplified form is \frac{4z+3}{z+2}

12z^2 - 7z -12/ 3z^2 + 2z - 8

= (4z+3) (3z -4)/ (z+2)(3z -4)

= (4z + 3)  / (x+2)

Hope this helps

The diagonals of quadrilateral EFGH intersect at D(?3,4). EFGH has vertices at E(3,7) and F(?4,5). What must be the coordinates
Katen [24]

Answer:

  G(3, 1), H(2, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

When D is the midpoint of EG, it means ...

  D = (E + G)/2

or

  G = 2D -E = 2(3,4) -(3,7) = (2·3-3, 2·4-7) = (3, 1)

Likewise, H is ...

  H = 2D -F = 2(3,4) -(4,5) = (2·3-4, 2·4-5) = (2, 3)

If Colorado spring, Colorado, has 1.2 times as many days of sunshine as Boston, Massachusetts, how many days of sunshine does ea
Crank
C= Colorado B= Boston
C + B = 464
C = 1.2B
Substitute the known value of C from the second equation into the first
C + B = 464
(1.2B) + B = 464
2.2B = 464
Divide each side by 2.2
B = 210.9, rounded to 211 (it's asking for days, not partial days, so round)
If Boston has 211 days of sunshine , then Colorado Springs has 1.2 times that amount. 211 * 1.2 = 253.2 (rounded to 253)
Verification
211 + 253 = 464
