Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{x-1}{x^2-3x+2}+ \frac{x-2}{x^2-5x+6} +\frac{x-5}{x^2-8x+15}$

we need to simplify that

$x^2-3x+2=(x-1)(x-2)\\\\x^2-5x+6=(x-2)(x-3)\\\\x^2-8x+15=(x-3)(x-5)$

so we can continue

$\frac{x-1}{(x-1)(x-2)}=\frac{1}{x-2}\\\\\frac{x-2}{(x-2)(x-3)} =\frac{1}{x-3}\\\\\frac{x-5}{(x-3)(x-5)} =\frac{1}{x-3}$

and we can put all together

$\frac{1}{x-2}+ \frac{1}{x-3}+ \frac{1}{x-3}\\\\\frac{1}{x-2} +\frac{2}{x-3}\\\\\frac{x-3}{(x-3)(x-2)}+ \frac{2(x-2)}{(x-2)(x-3)} \\\\\frac{x-3+2x-4}{(x-3)(x-2)}\\\\\frac{3x-7}{x^2-5x+6}$

Given the equation 2X +4/3 Y equals one and Y -9/13 x=9 by what Vector would you multiply the first equation so that combining t

Mila [183]

Answer: Option B

B. $\frac{9}{26}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following equations:

$2x + \frac{4}{3}y = 1$ (1)

$y -\frac{9}{13}x=9$ (2)

Let us call "a" the coefficient of the variable x in the first equation and call "b" the coefficient of the variable x in the second equation.

Then we must multiply the number "a" by a value z such that when adding $az + b$ the result is zero. $a = 2$

$b = -\frac{9}{13}$

$2z-\frac{9}{13} = 0$

We solve the equation for z

$2z=\frac{9}{13}$

$z=\frac{9}{26}$

The first equation must be multiplied by a value of $\frac{9}{26}$

Figure A has a radius of 2 inches. It is dilated by a scale factor of 4 to form figure B. What is the radius of figure B?

snow_lady [41]

Given that figure A with radius of 2 inches is dilated to form figure B, the radius of B will be given by:
Radius B=(radius A)×(scale factor)
but
scale factor=4
thus
Radius of B will be:
2×4
=8 inches
