The question tells us that Mallory's 2 years old than three times her brother Jake's age, but let's just start by saying she's 2 years older than <em>some age. </em>What would that look like? Well, we'd be taking some number and adding two to it, so something like this:

Mallory's age = (some age) + 2

What is that age though? The problem tells us it's three times Jake's age, j. We can write that as 3 × j, or 3j, to save space. Filling in our blank, we can write the expression for Mallory's age as 3j + 2

Solving Rational equations. LCD method. Show work. Image attached.
Ugo [173]

Answer:

k=\frac{1}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

The given rational equation is

\frac{5k}{k+2}+\frac{2}{k}=5

The Least Common Denominator is

k(k+2)

Multiply each term by the LCD.

k(k+2)\times \frac{5k}{k+2}+k(k+2)\times \frac{2}{k}=5k(k+2)

Simplify;

k\times \frac{5k}{1}+(k+2)\times \frac{2}{1}=5k(k+2)

\Rightarrow k(5k)+2(k+2)=5k(k+2)

Expand;

\Rightarrow 5k^2+2k+4=5k^2+10k

Group similar terms;

\Rightarrow 5k^2-5k^2+2k-10k=-4

\Rightarrow -8k=-4

Divide by -8.

k=\frac{1}{2}

4. You are traveling to Chicago for a job interview. You leave Toledo, Ohio, at 5:45 A.M. and arrive in Elkhart, Indiana, at 8:1
Dvinal [7]

Answer:

48 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to find the distance from Elkhart to Chicago. Toledo to Elkhart is 136 miles and Toledo to Chicago 244 miles.

So the distance from Elkhart to Chicago can be calculated, since Chicago is farther from Toledo than Elkhart, as: distance(Toledo to Chicago) - distance(Toledo to Elkhart). These distances are given in the problem, so the distance from Elkhat to Chicago is: 244 miles - 136 miles = 108 miles.

This problem basically wants to know the slowest you can be yet still ariving on time. If you are the minimum speed, you will arrive in Chicago exactly at 10:30 A.M. So you have 2 hours and 15 minutes(10:30 A.M - 8.15A.M.) to drive 108 miles.

15 minutes is a fourth of a hour, so you have 2.25hours to go through 108 miles.

The minimum speed you must maintain is 108mph/2.25h = 48mph.

Is the following expression true or false? Show your work.
Paul [167]

Answer: True

Solution:

Rearrange the equation to the LHS:

[x^2 + 8x + 16] · [x^2 – 8x + 16] - (x^2 – 16)^2 = 0

Factoring  x^2+8x+16

x^2 - 4x - 4x - 16

= (x-4)  •  (x-4)

= = (x+4)2

So now we have an equation

(x + 4)^2 • (x - 4)^2 -  (x^2 - 16)^2  = 0

Step 2: Evaluate the following:

(x+4)2   =    x^2+8x+16

(x-4)2   =    x^2-8x+16  

(x^2-16)2   =    x^4-32x^2+256

(x^2+8x+16)  (x^2-8x+16  ) -  (x^4-32x^2+256 )

0 = 0

Hence True
