Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x² + 2x - 24 = x² + 6x  - 4x - 4 * 6

                   = x(x + 6) - 4(x + 6)

                   = (x + 6) (x - 4)

x² - x - 42 = x² -7x + 6x - 6 * 7

                = x(x - 7) + 6(x - 7)

               =  (x - 7) (x + 6)

\frac{x^{2}+2x-24}{x^{2}-x-42}=\frac{(x + 6)*(x-4)}{(x+6)(x-7)}\\\\\\=\frac{x-4}{x-7}

Answer:

\frac{x - 4}{x - 7}

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{ {x}^{2} + 2x - 24 }{ {x}^{2} - x - 42 }  \\  \frac{(x + 6) (x - 4)}{(x - 7)(x + 6)} \:the \: term \: will \: be \: simplified (x + 6)  \\ and \: we \: will \: be \: left \: with \:  \frac{x - 4}{x - 7}

State if the two triangles are congruent. if they are state how you know.
nlexa [21]
1) The triangles are congruent by SSS.

The two tick marks indicate two pairs of congruent sides; it is evident that the third side is congruent by the way the diagram is drawn - the bases of the triangles are together and appear to be the same length.

2) The triangles are congruent by SAS.

The two pairs of tick marks indicate congruent sides, and their included angles are congruent because they are vertical angles, and vertical angles are always congruent.

What are the degrees of freedom associated with the factor(s) in this study design?
miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

The question is unclear and incomplete.

Let me explain the degrees of freedom in statistics.

Step-by-step explanation:

Statistically, degrees of freedom which is denoted as DF is the number of independent values that can vary in an analysis without breaking any constraints. It can also be referred to as the number of independent values that a statistical analysis can estimate.

Degrees of freedom also define the probability distributions for the test statistics of various hypothesis tests.

The degree of freedom has the formula:

DF = N - 1 where N number of random variables

DF = (R - 1) x (C - 1) Where R is the number of data values and C is the number of groups

Determine algebrically if f(x)=4x³-5x is odd or even function​
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

Odd function

Step-by-step explanation:

So to see if a function is odd or even we need to plug in a negative x for x, so f(-x)=4(-x)^3-5(-x). This produces -4x^3+5x, which is the exact opposite of the original equation, so it is an odd function. If it were even, then the signs of the coefficients would be the same as the original function.
