Simplify 1/x+5 - 3x

Mathematics
1 answer:
svp [43]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

All you can do here to "simplify" the given expression is to rewrite it as a single fraction.  The LCD is x.

Multiply each term by x, combine the result, and then divide the entire result by x:

x(1/x + 5 - 3x)        1 + 5x - 3x²

-------------------- = --------------------    This result cannot be simplified further.

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to get the slope of the perpendicular line

The slope of a perpendicular line is equal to the negative inverse of the slope of the given line

Now that we have the slope, we need to find the y-intercept.

To find the y-intercept, we need to plug-in values of  

x

and  

y

Given the quadratic equation below, determine which situation it could represent? x2 -4x = 60
yarga [219]

Answer:

The solution is x = 10 and x = -6. This quadratic could be represented in factored form as (x - 10)(x + 6) or on a graph with x-intercepts at (10,0) and (-6,0).

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the quadratic, write the quadratic in standard form and factor the equation.

x² - 4x = 60

x² - 4x - 60 = 0

(x - 10)(x + 6) = 0

x = 10 and x = -6

Which statement correctly describes the location of the incenter of a triangle?
NemiM [27]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  B)  The incenter is equidistant from all three sides of the triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

The incenter is the center of the inscribed circle, which is tangent to all three sides. Hence, the distance from the incenter to each side is the radius of the circle. The incenter is equidistant from the sides of the triangle.
