Assuming that your question is (x-1)(x+2) = [5(x-1)]/x-1
On the right side, the x-1's will cancel out, leaving you with (x-1)(x+2) = 5
expand the left side, giving you x^2 + x -2 = 5
which goes to x^2 +x -7 = 0
the possible values for x are 2.93 and -3.93. I don't think this was your question, so I'll do the other possible question that you might have been asking.
(x-1)(x+2) = 5(x-1)
divide by x-1 on both sides, leaving you with x+2=5
x+2=5
x=5-3
x=3
1. y = 7
2. 0
3. m = -1
4. k = -4
5. x = -6
6. There is no solution for these equations.

Answer:
He can buy <u>3 bracelets</u>.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Mr. Gonzales has only 42.50 to spend he wants to buy 29 t shirts including tax and some bracelets that cost 4.50 each including tax.
Now, to find the number of bracelets he can buy.
Let the number of bracelets he can buy be 
Price of each bracelets = 4.50.
Total amount to spend = 42.50.
Number of t-shirts = 29.
Now, to get the number of bracelets we put an equation:
<em>Subtracting both sides by 29 we get:</em>
<em />
<em />
<em>Dividing both sides by 4.50 we get:</em>
<u>The number of bracelets = 3.</u>
Therefore, he can buy 3 bracelets.
Answer:
10%
Step-by-step explanation:
We know Perimeter of rectangle
= 2 (Length + Width)
If width and length are increased by 10%
New length= L + 10/100L = (1.1) L
New width = W + 10/100W = (1.1) W
Perimeter = 2 [(1.1) L + (1.1) W]
Perimeter = 2 (1.1) (L + W)
Perimeter = (2.2) (L + W)
Increase in perimeter = 2.2 (L + W) - 2 (L + W)
The increase in Perimeter = 0.2 (L + W)
Percent increase
= 0.2 (L + W)/2 (L + W) × 100
= 0.2/2 × 100
= 0.1 × 100
= 10%
