Add and subtract the rational expressions. 7x+5/x-1 -(8x1/x-1+2x-4/x-1) Which statements are true about the process for adding a

anzhelika [568]

Answer:

2. The denominator of the fully simplified expression will be x – 1.

4. The numerator of the fully simplified expression will be –3x + 10.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the rational expression

$\dfrac{7x+5}{x-1} -(\dfrac{8x-1}{x-1} +\dfrac{2x-4}{x-1} )$

Let us first simplify before making our deductions.

Opening the brackets

$\dfrac{7x+5}{x-1} -(\dfrac{8x-1}{x-1} +\dfrac{2x-4}{x-1} )=\dfrac{7x+5}{x-1} -\dfrac{8x-1}{x-1} -\dfrac{2x-4}{x-1}$

Taking LCM

$=\dfrac{7x+5-(8x-1)-(2x-4)}{x-1}$

Opening the brackets and simplifying

$=\dfrac{7x+5-8x+1-2x+4}{x-1}\\\text{Collecting like terms in the numerator}\\=\dfrac{7x-8x-2x+5+1+4}{x-1}\\=\dfrac{-3x+10}{x-1}$

The following statements are therefore true:

2. The denominator of the fully simplified expression will be x – 1.

4. The numerator of the fully simplified expression will be –3x + 10.

Finger [1]

The team plays 20 matches.

65% of the matches, the teams wins
= 20 * 0.65
= 13 matches

15% of the matches, the games ends in draw.
= 20 * 0.15
= 3 matches

The team is expected to lose in
= 20 - 13 - 3
= 4 matches

A rectangle has an area of 99 square in. What is the length of the long side?

OLga [1]

Answer:

The longer length is either 99, 33 or 11 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Area = 99$

Required

The length of the longer side

Area of a rectangle is:

$Area = Length * Width$

List out all possible products that give 99 [Assume the dimension are whole numbers]

$Length * Width = 99 * 1 = 99$

$Length * Width = 33 * 3 = 99$

$Length * Width = 11 * 9 = 99$

List out the longer factors

$L = \{99, 33, 11\}$

Hence, the longer length is either 99, 33 or 11 inches
