6x+1 / 2x +6 - 5/2

Factor 2 out of the denominator of the first fraction:

6x+1 / 2(x+3) - 5/2

Rewrite 5/2 to have a common denominator with the first fraction:

6x+1/2(x+3) - 5(x+3) / 2(x+3)

Simplify terms:

6x +1 - 5(x+3) / 2(x+3)

Use distributive property:

6x +1 - 5x -15 / 2(x+3)

Combine like terms for final answer:

(x-14) / 2(x+3)

The figure below shows square ABCD inscribed on square PQRM on a coordinate plane. Which of the following expressions represents

vova2212 [387]

The hypotenuse of the triangle is given by:
$CB ^ 2 = RC ^ 2 + RB ^ 2
$
Substituting values:
$CB ^ 2 = 2 ^ 2 + 4 ^ 2
$
Clearing CB we have:
$CB = \sqrt{ 2 ^ 2 + 4 ^ 2} 

 CB = \sqrt{ 4 + 16} 

 CB = \sqrt{20} 

 CB = \sqrt{4*5} 

 CB = 2\sqrt{5} 



$
Then, the perimeter of the triangle is:
$P = RB + RC + CB
$
Substituting values:
$P = 4 + 2 + 2 \sqrt{5} 

 P = 6 + 2 \sqrt{5}$
Answer:
the perimeter of triangle BRC in units is:
D.6 + 2√5

Read this sentence in the problem carefully.
"<span>The number of pages in each program is determined by the number of graduates."

That means that you can have any number of graduates, and you will figure out the number of pages in the program depending on the number of graduates.

g, the number of graduates, is the independent independent variable.
p, the number of pages, is the dependent variable.
