2x-5-\dfrac{x-8}{x+4}=\dfrac{(2x-5)(x+4)}{x+4}-\dfrac{x-8}{x+4}\\\\=\dfrac{(2x)(x)+(2x)(4)+(-5)(x)+(-5)(4)-x-(-8)}{x+4}\\\\=\dfrac{2x^2+8x-5x-20-x+8}{x+4}=\dfrac{2x^2+2x-12}{x+4}

Answer:

x + a + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

g(a) = a² + 2a

g(x) - g(a) = x² + 2x - a² - 2a

= x² - a² + 2x - 2a

= (x - a)(x + a) + 2(x - a)

= (x - a)(x + a + 2)

[g(x) - g(a)] ÷ (x - a)

= x + a + 2

Write the point-slope equation of the line with the given properties. Solve the equation for y. M= -0.25, (12,7)
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

y = -0.25x + 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Point-slope form is y - y1 = m (x - x1)

Here, y1 is 7, m is -0.25, and x1 is 12

When you plug these values in, you get y - 7 = -0.25 (x - 12)

Now we have to solve for y.

y - 7 = -0.25 (x - 12)

Distribute

y - 7 = -0.25x + 3

Add 7 to both sides

y = -0.25x + 10

Please any help is necessary
Ugo [173]

Answer:

Option D. 50 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The area of the figure is equal to the area of three rectangles

so

A=18x+(48-36)(32-11)+(18)(32)

A=18x+(12)(21)+(18)(32)\\A=18x+828

Remember that the area is given

A= 1,728\ ft^2

so

18x+828=1,728

solve for x

18x=1,728-828\\18x=900\\x=50\ ft

I need help i’m confused
labwork [276]
Ok so you would take the bottom which is 15 and divide that by half of 15 which is 7.5. Then you would take the answer (2) and do an equation. You need to put BT at the end. In this case
it’s x = 2 + BT
