Answer:

1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

First you subtract the numerators ( 3 - 2 = 1 ) and since you are adding you would keep the same denominator aka 4 and then you get 1/4

$\bf 4(x+1)^{\frac{2}{3}}+\cfrac{12}{(x+1)^{\frac{1}{3}}}\impliedby \textit{so, our LCD is }(x+1)^{\frac{1}{3}}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{4(x+1)^{\frac{2}{3}}\cdot (x+1)^{\frac{1}{3}}+12}{(x+1)^{\frac{1}{3}}}\implies \cfrac{4(x+1)^{\frac{2}{3}+\frac{1}{3}}+12}{(x+1)^{\frac{1}{3}}}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{4(x+1)^{\frac{3}{3}}+12}{(x+1)^{\frac{1}{3}}}\implies \cfrac{4(x+1)+12}{(x+1)^{\frac{1}{3}}}\implies \cfrac{4x+4+12}{(x+1)^{\frac{1}{3}}}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{4x+16}{(x+1)^{\frac{1}{3}}}\implies \cfrac{4(x+4)}{\sqrt[3]{x+1}}$

Solve for x. Show your work.<br><br> -1/2 x < -12

lesantik [10]

All you need to do is divide -1/2 onto the other side.

-1/2x<-12

-12/ (-1/2)= 6 (a negative and a negative equals a positive)

Also, since you are dividing a negative, you flip the sign.

x>6

I hope this helps!

Illusion [34]

Answer:

Given:

The distances, in yards, that a team moves on its first five plays are 2, 21, 4, 3, and 25.

Solved:

1. The greatest number is 25

2. If the moved distances are square, which one is largest?

3. The move which is greater than 4 is considered "big play"

=> 21 and 25 are big play (21 > 4, 25 > 4)

Hope this helps!

The difference of two numbers is 34 and their sum is 338

Assoli18 [71]

X-y=34
x+y=338

We can use elimination in this problem.

2x=372
x=186

186+y=338
y=338-186
y=152
