1 answer:

7 0

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

Find the length of GV

levacccp [35]

Answer:

43.92

Step-by-step explanation:

First you need the measure of angle C

180 - 90 - 37 = 53 degrees

Then use the Law of Sines with the pair you know:

sin 90 / 55 = sin 53 / x

Solve the equation

x * sin 90 / 55 = sin 53

x * sin 90 = 55 * sin 53

x = 55 * sin 53/sin 90

x = 43.92

Write the equation of the line that passes through (−2, 6) and (2, 14) in slope-intercept form. (2 points)

melisa1 [442]

Answer:

$y = 4x + 14$

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a line is y = mx + c

where

m is the slope

c is the y intercept

To find the equation we must first find the slope of the line

Slope of the line using points (−2, 6) and (2, 14) is

$m = \frac{14 - 6}{2 + 2} = \frac{8}{2} = 4$

Now we use the slope and any of the points to find the equation of the line.

Equation of the line using point ( - 2, 6) and slope 4 is

$y - 6 = 4(x + 2) \\ y - 6 = 4x + 8 \\ y = 4x + 8 + 6$

We have the final answer as

$y = 4x + 14$

Hope this helps you
