Solve for k. -21 -3 21

Mathematics

Answer:

k = -21

Step-by-step explanation:

9/ (2k-3) = 4/(k+1)

Using cross products

9 * (k+1) = 4(2k-3)

Distribute

9k+9 = 8k -12

Subtract 8k from each side

9k-8k +9 = 8k-8k-12

k+9 = -12

Subtract 9 from each side

k+9-9 = -12-9

k = -21

Answer:

\huge\boxed{k=21}

Step-by-step explanation:

\dfrac{9}{2k-3}=\dfrac{4}{k+1}

First step:

Find domain.

We know: the denominator must be different than 0.

Therefore we have:

2k-3\neq0\ \wedge\ k+1

2k-3\neq0\qquad\text{add 3 to both sides}\\2k\neq3\qquad\text{divide both sides by 2}\\\boxed{k\neq1.5}\\\\k+1\neq0\qquad\text{subtract 1 from both sides}\\\boxed{k\neq-1}\\\\\text{Domain:}\ x\in\mathbb{R}\backslash\{-1;\ 1.5\}

Second step:

Solve for k.

\dfrac{9}{2k-3}=\dfrac{4}{k+1}\qquad\text{cross multiply}\\\\9(k+1)=4(2k-3)\qquad\text{use the distributive property}:\ a(b+c)=ab+ac\\\\(9)(k)+(9)(1)=(4)(2k)-(4)(3)\\\\9k+9=8k-12\qquad\text{subtract 9 from both sides}\\\\9k=8k-21\qquad\text{subtract}\ 8k\ \text{from both sides}\\\\\boxed{k=21}\in\text{Domain}

Answer:

  lower left

Step-by-step explanation:

We notice that the answer choices have only the first equation changed. The equivalent of the first equation must have the same ratios of coefficients.

  x-coefficient : y-coefficient : constant

  = 2 : 1 : -15 . . . . . in the given equation

  2 : -2 : 30 = 1 : -1 : 15 . . .  upper left — not the same

  -4 : -2 : -15 = 4 : 2 : 15 . . . upper right — not the same

  -4 : -2 : 30 = 2 : 1 : -15 . . . lower left — same as the given equation

  -4 : 1 : 30 = 4 : -1 : -30 . . . lower right — not the same

Which statements are biconditional? Check all that apply.
Volgvan

Biconditionals are statements that work both ways.

Some examples:

If it rains, I go out, and if I go out, it must be raining.

This can be stated concisely in mathematical terms as

I go out IF AND ONLY IF it rains.

So looking at the given statements, only the last two work both ways, namely:


If the sun rises in the east, then it is morning, and if it is morning, the sun rises in the east.

Victoria will play outside if and only if the weather is nice.
