RSB [31]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

-a(a+4)/(16 - a²)

Step-by-step explanation:

            a/(a - 4)                  Multiply by (a + 4)/(a + 4)

= a(a + 4)/[(a – 4)(a + 4)]     Multiply the denominatorator terms

= a(a + 4)/(a² - 16)               Multiply by -1/(-1)

= -a(a+4)/(-a² + 16)              Reorder terms in denominator

= -a(a+4)/(16 - a²)

If (x + 1) is a factor of 2x - kx²-8x + 5, find the value of k.<br>[ Using Factor Theorem ]​
Alla [95]

Answer:

k = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

What the factor theorem is telling us is that if x + 1 is a factor of 2x - kx²-8x + 5 then when x = - 1 is put into the equation, the result will be 0. That's because x +1 = 0 when x  = - 1

f(-1) = 2(-1) - k(-1)^2 - 8(-1) + 5

f(-1) = -2 - k(1) + 8 + 5 = 0

-k*(1) + 11 = 0

-k = -11

k = 11

14379.50

Step-by-step explanation:

If I remember correctly, the Medicare tax is taken on Gross Income. The question has already limited the base amount for Social Security.

<em><u>Social Security:</u></em> 118,500 * 6.2/100 =   7347

Sonny paid 14370 in taxes for these 2 items.

If x = 8, then multiply x by 28. Then, you'll get 224. If y = 14, then multiply y by 28. Then, you'll get 392. Now add 392 and 224 to get 616. Your answer is $616.

Paula has a dog that weighs 3 times as much as Carla's dog. The total weight of the dogs is 80 pounds. How much does Paula's dog
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

60 lb

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent the weights of the dogs by P and C. Then P = 3C.

Then P + C = 80, or, after substitution of 3C for P,

3C + C = 80, or

4C = 20, so that C = (20 pounds)

Paula's dog weighs 3 times as much as Carla's:  P = 3(20 lb) = 60 lb
