Answer:

Option A is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the product of

\frac{(x^2-16)}{(2x+8)} * \frac{(x^3-2x^2+x)}{(x^2+3x-4)}

We know (a^2-b^2) = (a+b)(a-b)

so, (x^2-16) = (x)^2-(4)^2 = (x-4)(x+4)

2x+8 Taking 2 common from this term:

2x+8 = 2(x+4)

(x^3-2x^2+x) Taking x common from this term

x(x^2-2x+1) = x(x-1)^2 = x(x-1)(x-1)

(x^2+3x-4) factorizing this term

x^2+4x-x-4 = x(x+4)-1(x+4)

= (x-1)(x+4)

Now, Putting these simplified terms in the given equation:

\frac{(x-4)(x+4)}{2(x+4)}*\frac{x(x-1)(x-1)}{(x-1)(x+4)}

Now cancelling the same terms that are in numerator and denominator

=\frac{(x-4)}{2}*\frac{x(x-1)}{(x+4)}\\=\frac{(x-4)(x)(x-1)}{2(x+4)}\\=\frac{x(x-4)(x-1)}{2(x+4)}

So, Option A is correct.

Answer:

=x(x-4)(x-1)/2(x+4)

Step-by-step explanation:

=x^2-4^2/2(x+4) * x^3-2x^2+x/x^2+3x-4

=(x+4)(x-4)/2(x+4) * x(x^2-2x+1)/x^2+3x-4

Factor x^2-2x+1 using the perfect square root

=(x+4)(x-4)/2(x+4) * x(x-1)^2/x^2+3x-4

Factor x^2+3x-4 using AC method.

=(x+4)(x-4)/2(x+4) * x(x-1)^2/(x-1)(x+4)

Cancel the common factor of x+4 and x-1

=(x-4)/2(x+4) * x(x-1)/1

=(x-4)x(x-1)/2(x+4)

Reorder the terms

=x(x-4)(x-1)/2(x+4)

irga5000 [103]
Hello 
the equation is y = ax+b
a the slop    a = 4
y = 4x+b
the line <span>passes through (3, -10) :  -10 = 6(3)+b
b = -28
</span>the equation is y = 6x-28

Regan's New Year's resolution is to exercise more. Today, she plans to run 1.5 miles on the track around her school's football f
Contact [7]

Answer:

6 laps

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the scenario, calculation of the data are as follows:

Each lap = 0.25 miles

Regan's plan to run= 1.5 miles

So, we can calculate number of laps by using following formula,

Number of laps = Total miles to run ÷ each lap miles

By putting the value, we get

Number of laps = 1.5 miles ÷ 0.25 miles

= 6 laps

So, she should run 6 laps.
