Answer:

true

Step-by-step explanation:

(-8) + 9 = 9 + (-8)

solve both sides of the equation

-8 + 9 = 1

9 + (-8) is equivalent to 9-8 = 1

so,

1 = 1

this equation is true

hope this helps!! :)

Find the quotient and any excluded values. (x + 5/x^2 + 9x + 20)/(x^2-16/x-4)

Wittaler [7]

By (x + 5/x^2 + 9x + 20) you apparently meant the following:

x+5
----------------------
x^2 + 9x + 20

and by

(x^2-16/x-4)
x^2-16
you apparently meant ---------------
x - 4

Please use additional parentheses for clarity.

Dividing,

 x+5 (x-4)(x+4)
---------------------- * ---------------
x^2 + 9x + 20 x-4

Now, x^2 + 9x + 20 factors into (x+4)(x+5), so what we have now is

(x+5)(x+4)
------------------------- = 1 This is true for all x, so there are no exclusions.
(x+4)(x+5)

If AB=BC,AB=4=4x-2,andBC=3x+3,fine the length of AB

laila [671]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First, I'm assuming AB=4=4x-2 was a typo and it's supposed to be AB = 4x - 2

AB=BC

AB = 4x - 2 BC = 3x + 3

4x - 2 = 3x + 3

Solve for x Add 2 to each side

4x - 2 = 3x + 3

4x - 2 + 2 = 3x + 3 + 2

4x = 3x + 5 Subtract 3x from each side.

4x - 3x = 3x- 3x + 5

4x - 3x = 5

x = 5

Now plug back in to the original equations

AB = 4x - 2 BC = 3x + 3

AB = 4 (5) - 2 BC = 3(5) + 3

AB = 20 - 2 BC = 15 + 3

AB = 18 BC = 18

So AB is 18
