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}

yulyashka [42]

Answer:

6.95 pounds. Her dog weighs 6.95 more pounds than the total weight of both her cats.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the total weight of her cats, add their weights together:

9.8+8.25

=18.05 pounds

Then to find the difference between the weight of her dog and the weight of her cats' total weight, you subtract the weight of the cats from the weight of the dog:

25-18.05

=6.95 pounds
