Start with

1=\dfrac{1}{n^2}+\dfrac{n^2-4n-5}{3n^2}

We observe that both fractions are not defined if n=0. So, we will assume n \neq 0.

We multiply both numerator and denominator of the first fraction by 3 and we sum the two fractions:

1=\dfrac{3}{3n^2}+\dfrac{n^2-4n-5}{3n^2} = \dfrac{n^2-4n-2}{3n^2}

We multiply both sides by 3n^2:

n^2-4n-2=3n^2

We move everything to one side and solve the quadratic equation:

2n^2+4n+2=0 \iff 2(n^2+2n+1)=0 \iff 2(n+1)^2=0 \iff n+1=0 \iff n=-1

We check the solution:

1=\dfrac{1}{1}+\dfrac{1+4-5}{3} \iff 1 = 1+0

which is true

Stickers are made with the same ratio of width to length. A sticker 2 inches wide has a length of 4 inches. Complete the table.
aalyn [17]

Answer:

The explanation of this question is given below in the explanation section

Step-by-step explanation:

The data is given in form of length and width.

Then, we need to convert it into improper fraction.

As you know that, the improper fraction is a fraction where the numerator (top number) is larger than the denominator (bottom number).

So, we converted it into improper fraction i.e.

Improper fraction= lenght/width

Then we reduce the fraction into lowest form and shown in ratio as depicted in attached picture with this solution.

Find the distance between the two points rounding to the nearest tenth (if necessary).
Virty [35]

\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{distance between 2 points} \\\\ (\stackrel{x_1}{3}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{6})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{1}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{9})\qquad \qquad d = \sqrt{( x_2- x_1)^2 + ( y_2- y_1)^2} \\\\\\ d=\sqrt{(1-3)^2+(9-6)^2}\implies d=\sqrt{(-2)^2+3^2} \\\\\\ d=\sqrt{13}\implies d\approx 3.6056\implies \stackrel{\textit{rounded up}}{d=3.6}
