The answer is -3/4

what i did was: took the -2-4/6-(-2) solved and got -6/8 i symplified and the answer is -3/4

Answer:

$\frac{2(c+2)}{c(c-2)}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{c^{2}-4 }{6c^{4}+15c^{3}}=\frac{(c-2)(c+2)}{c(6c^{3}+15c^{2}) }$

Identity used:

$a^{2}-b^{2}=(a-b)(a+b)$

$\frac{c^{2}-4c+4}{12c^{3}+30c^{2}}=\frac{(c-2)^{2}}{2(6c^{3}+15c^{2}) }$

Now let us divide the modified expressions:

$\frac{(c-2)(c+2)}{c(6c^{3}+15c^{2})}$ ÷ $\frac{(c-2)^2}{2(6c^{3}+15c^{2}) }$

we get:

$\frac{2(c+2)}{c(c-2)}$

Triangle ABC is being dilated with the center of dilation at the origin. The image of C, point C' has coordinates of (7.2, 3.6).

MAXImum [283]

General Idea:

When we are given a point P(x, y) centered at origin with a scale factor of k, then the dilated point will be given by P' (kx, ky)

Applying the concept:

In the diagram given, the coordinate of C is (6, 3). Triangle ABC is being dilated with the center of dilation at the origin. The image of C, point C' has coordinates of (7.2, 3.6).

If C (x, y) centered at origin with a scale factor of k, then the dilated point will be given by C' (kx, ky)

We know $x = 6$ & $kx = 7.2$

Substituting 6 for x in the equation $kx = 7.2$ , we get $6k = 7.2$ .

Dividing 6 on both sides $\frac{6k}{6}=\frac{7.2}{6}$

Simplifying fractions on both sides $k=1.2$

Point A from the diagram is (-3, 3)

x-coordinate of A' = $kx=1.2 * -3 = -3.6$

y-coordinate of A' = $ky =1.2*3=3.6$

Point A' is given by (-3.6, 3.6)

Conclusion:

<u>Scale factor of dilation is 1.2</u>

<u>The coordinates of point A' is (-3.6, 3.6)</u>

Conjunction and disconjuction

maks197457 [2]

Step-by-step explanation:

When two statements are connected with an 'and,' you have a conjunction.

For conjunctions, both statements must be true for the compound statement to be true.

When the connector between two statements is "or," you have a disjunction. In this case, only one statement in the compound statement needs to be true for the entire compound statement to be true.

Find the common ratio of the geometric sequence 11, -55, 275,...11,−55,275,...

Kaylis [27]

Answer:

r = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

common ratio (r) is found be dividing one term by its preceding term:

r = 275 ÷ -55 = -5

or, r = -55 ÷ 11 = -5

Therefore, r = -5
