What is the value of the rational expression below when x is equal to 4? x+20/x+4

Mathematics
1 answer:
Aleonysh [2.5K]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

All we need to do here is plug in the number 4 for the variable x. Wherever there's an x, kidnap it and replace it with a 4!

\frac{x + 20}{x + 4}

x = 4

\frac{4 + 20}{4 + 4}

Do the addition.

4 + 20 = 24

4 + 4 = 8

\frac{24}{8}

We can simplify this! What is 24 divided by 8?

24/8 = 3

The answer is 3!

3/4(2x-3) = 2/3 x+5 with detailed explanation
Vlad [161]

Answer:

x = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

3/(3(2x-3)) = 2/(3x+5)

3(2x-3) = 6x - 9

3/(6x-9) = 2/(3x+5)

3(3x+5) = 2(6x-9)

9x + 15 = 12x - 18

12x - 9x = 15 + 18

3x = 33

x = 11

A room is 12cm long, 7cm wide and<br>4cm high find the area <br>the ceiling​
aksik [14]
Hey there!
I think that it safe to say that this room is a rectangular prism. Therefore, the top and bottom (floor and ceiling) have the same area. We see that our floor dimensions are 12 cm long and 7 cm wide. This also applies to the ceiling. Let’s take our two sides and multiply then to find our area.

12(7)=84

Therefore, the area is 84 square centimeters.

I hope that this helps!

Use the method of completing the square to solve x2 - 6x + 1 = 0. Simplify your solutions.
exis [7]

Answer:

x = 3 ± 2\sqrt{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

given

x² - 6x + 1 = 0 ( subtract 1 from both sides )

x² - 6x = - 1

To complete the square

add (half the coefficient of the x- term)² to both sides

x² - 6x + (- 3)² = - 1 + (- 3)²

x² - 6x + 9 = - 1 + 9

(x - 3)² = 8 ( take the square root of both sides )

x - 3 = ± \sqrt{8} = ± 2\sqrt{2} ( add 3 to both sides )

x = 3 ± 2\sqrt{2}
