Question

x+5/x+2 - x+1/x²+2x

Answer:

= (x² - 4x - 1)/[x (x+2)]

= (x² - 4x - 1)/[x² + 2x]

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 5/x + 2 - x + 1/x² + 2x

We factorise the second denominator to give us :

x + 5/x + 2 - x + 1/x(x + 2)

We find the L.C.M of both denominators which is x(x+2).

[x(x + 5)-(x + 1)] / (x (x + 2))

Expand the bracket

=[x² +5x - x -1] / [x (x + 2)]

=(x² - 4x - 1) / [x (x + 2)]

= (x² - 4x - 1)/ [x (x + 2)]

= (x² - 4x - 1) / [x² + 2x]

Write 0.2 as a percentage.

nlexa [21]

To turn a decimal to a percent.....there r 2 ways.

(1) multiply the number by 100 : 0.2 x 100 = 20%
(2) take ur decimal and move it 2 spaces to the right : 0.2 = 20%

Which is the equation of a line that is perpendicular to 6x – 4y = 9?

natulia [17]

6x – 4y = 9

4y = 6x - 9

y = 6/4 x - 9/4

y = 3/2 x - 9/4 this line has slope = 3/2

perpendicular line, slope is opposite and reciprocal so slope of this line = -2/3

answer:

A. y= - 2/3 x - 4 (only this line has slope = -2/3)

He short sides of a rectangle are 2 inches. The long sides of the same rectangle are three less than an unknown number of inches

goldenfox [79]

The sum of two adjacent sides is 11 inches, so the long sides are 9 inches. The "unknown number" must be 12.

Answer:

type 2 in the first box,

13/4 in the second box, and

-9/8 in the third one

Step-by-step explanation:Notice that you are asked to write the following quadratic expression in vertex form, so you need to find the "x" value of the vertex, and then the "y" value of the vertex:

$x_{vertex}= -b/2a$

Which in our case is: -13/4

and the value of the y for the vertex is obtained using the functional expression when x equals -13/4:

$f(-13/4)= -9/8$

Then your expression for this quadratic should be:

$f(x)=2\,(x+\frac{13}{4} )^2+(-\frac{9}{8})$

Then type 2 in the first box, 13/4 in the second box, and -9/8 in the third one
