Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

We  are given that a rational expression

\frac{3x-6}{x-2}

We have to simplify the rational expression.

To simplify the given expression we will take out common factor in numerator .

\frac{3x-6}{x-2}=\frac{3(x-2)}{x-2}

Cancel out the same term in  numerator and denominator . Then, we get

\frac{3x-6}{x-2}=3

Hence , the rational expression

\frac{3x-6}{x-2}=3

Answer:3

Hello,

Put the 3 as a common factor.

Look:

3x - 6 = 3 . ( x - 2 )

Then,

( 3x - 6) / (x - 2) = 3 .( x - 2) / (x -2)

Now simplity ( x -2)

= 3

Write the slip-intercept form of the equation of the line described
kompoz [17]

Answer:

1) y=⅚x -2⅓

2) y=8/3x -5

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Point-slope form:</u>

y=mx+c, where m is the gradient and c is the y-intercept.

Parallel lines have the same gradient.

Gradient of given line= \frac{5}{6}

Thus, m=⅚

Susbt. m=⅚ into the equation,

y= ⅚x +c

Since the line passes through the point (4, 1), (4, 1) must satisfy the equation. Thus, substitute (4, 1) into the equation to find c.

When x=4, y=1,

1= ⅚(4) +c

1 =  \frac{20}{6}  + c \\ c = 1 -  \frac{20}{6}  \\ c = 1 - 3 \frac{1}{3}  \\ c =  - 2 \frac{1}{3}

Thus the equation of the line is y =  \frac{5}{6} x - 2 \frac{1}{3}.

The gradients of perpendicular lines= -1.

Gradient of given line= -⅜

-⅜(gradient of line)= -1

gradient of line

= -1 ÷ (-⅜)

= -1 ×(-8/3)

= \frac{8}{3}

y =  \frac{8}{3} x + c

When x=3, y=3,

3 =  \frac{8}{3} (3) + c \\ 3 = 8 + c \\ c = 3 - 8 \\ c =  - 5

Thus the equation of the line is y =  \frac{8}{3} x - 5.

The temperature went from -16°F to 7°F. What was the change in temperature?
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

To find this out, we first need to see the change, is it a positive change or a negative change? Well in this case, as the temperature is increasing, we find that the change is positive. The next step we need to do, id that, how much was the change by, we can find this out by finding the absolute value of the difference of -16°F and 7°F

The absolute value means, the operations answer has to be positive, if not then it will become positive.

|-16°F -7°F|

=> |-23°F|

=> 23°F

If my answer helped, kindly mark me as the brainliest!!

Thank You!!
