$9x-14-2x=5(2x-6)\qquad\text{use distributive property}\\\\(9x-2x)-14=(5)(2x)+(5)(-6)\\\\7x-14=10x-30\qquad\text{add 14 to both sides}\\\\7x=10x-16\qquad\text{subtract 10x from both sides}\\\\-3x=-16\qquad\text{divide both sides by (-3)}\\\\\boxed{x=\dfrac{16}{3}}$

10. simplify the rational expression by rationalizing the denominator.( 1 point ) 4√150/√189x

ddd [48]

Rationalizing the denominator, simply means "getting rid of that pesky root at the bottom", and we do so by simply multiplying it by something to take it out, of course, we multiply the bottom, we have to also multiply the top,

$\bf \cfrac{4\sqrt{150}}{\sqrt{189x}}\cdot \cfrac{\sqrt{189x}}{\sqrt{189x}}\implies \cfrac{4\sqrt{150}\sqrt{189x}}{(\sqrt{189x})^2}\implies \cfrac{4\sqrt{(150)({189x})}}{189x}$

$\bf \cfrac{4\sqrt{28350x}}{189x}\qquad 
\begin{cases}
28350=2\cdot 3\cdot 3\cdot 3\cdot 3\cdot 5\cdot 5\cdot 7\\
\qquad 2\cdot 3^2\cdot 3^2\cdot 5^2\cdot 7\\
\qquad 2\cdot (3^2)^2\cdot 5^2\cdot 7\\
\qquad 2\cdot (3^2\cdot 5)^2\cdot 7\\
\qquad 2\cdot (45)^2\cdot 7\\
\qquad 14\cdot 45^2
\end{cases}\implies \cfrac{4\sqrt{14\cdot 45^2}}{189x}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{4\cdot 45\sqrt{14}}{189}\implies \cfrac{180\sqrt{14}}{189x}\implies \cfrac{20\sqrt{14}}{21x}$

Which point on the number line is at 58/100

liberstina [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

if you look at it 0 is the first one then count up by tens Q would 48 because it’s before 50 so 50 is right next to Q so then R is before 60 and after 50 so R is 58/100
