\bf \cfrac{5}{3x-12}+\cfrac{3x+1}{x^2-x-12}-\cfrac{2}{3}\implies \cfrac{5}{3(x-4)}+\cfrac{3x+1}{(x-4)(x+3)}-\cfrac{2}{3}

now, let's take a peek at the denominators, so we have "3" and "x-4" repeated, so we'll use them only once in our LCD, so using those repeated factors once, our LCD boils down to 3(x-4)(x+3).

\bf \stackrel{\textit{using an LCD of }3(x-4)(x+3)}{\cfrac{(x+3)5~~~~+~~~~(3)(3x+1)~~~ ~-~~~~[(x-4)(x+3)]2}{3(x-4)(x+3)}} \\\\\\ \cfrac{5x+15~~+~~9x+3~~-~~[x^2-x-12]2}{3(x-4)(x+3)} \\\\\\ \cfrac{5x+15~~+~~9x+3~~-~~(2x^2-2x-24)}{3(x-4)(x+3)} \\\\\\ \cfrac{5x+15~~+~~9x+3~~-~~2x^2+2x+24}{3(x-4)(x+3)} \\\\\\ \cfrac{42+16x-2x^2}{3(x-4)(x+3)}\implies \cfrac{2(21+8x-x^2)}{3(x-4)(x+3)}

Solve the following problems:
lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

The measure of side MO is 8 unit

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

In the Triangle ΔMOP ,

∠P = 90°

∠M = 60°

The perimeter of  ΔMOP = 12 + 4√3

Now, From figure , in Triangle ΔMOP

∠O = 180° - ( ∠P + ∠M )

or, ∠O = 180° - ( 90° + 60° )

or,  ∠O = 180° - 150°

∴ ∠O = 30°

<u>Now, from Triangle</u>

Sin 90° = \dfrac{\textrm perpendicular}{\textrm hypotenuse}

Or, Sin 90° = \dfrac{\textrm OP}{\textrm OM}

Or,  \dfrac{\textrm OP}{\textrm OM} = 1

Again

Sin 60° = \dfrac{\textrm perpendicular}{\textrm hypotenuse}

Or, Sin 60° = \dfrac{\textrm OP}{\textrm OM}

Or,  \dfrac{\textrm OP}{\textrm OM} = \dfrac{\sqrt{3} }{2}

Similarly

Sin 30° = \dfrac{\textrm base}{\textrm hypotenuse}

Or, Sin 30° = \dfrac{\textrm PM}{\textrm OM}

Or,  \dfrac{\textrm PM}{\textrm OM} = \frac{1}{2}

So, The ratio of the sides as

PM : MO : OP = 1 : 2 : \sqrt{3}

Let  PM = x

MO = 2 x

OP = x\sqrt{3}

Now, from question

The perimeter of triangle ΔMOP = 12 + 4√3

I.e, The sum of sides of triangle ΔMOP = 12 + 4√3

or, PM + MO + OP = 12 + 4√3

or, x + 2 x +  x\sqrt{3} = 12 + 4√3

or, 3 x  +  x\sqrt{3} = 12 + 4√3

Or, x ( 3 +\sqrt{3} ) = 4 ( 3 +\sqrt{3} )

Now, equating both side we get

x = 4

So, The measure of side MO = 2 x

I.e The measure of side MO = 2 × 4 = 8 unit

Hence The measure of side MO is 8 unit   Answer

3,0 and 4,l what is the y-intercept of the line
alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(3,0),(4,1) ⇒ (x₁,y₁),(x₂,y₂)

to find the equation of the line

y-y₁= {(y₂-y₁)/(x₂-x₁)}(x-x₁)

y-0= [(1-0)/(4-3)] (x-3)

y-0 = 1/1(x-3)

y-0 = x-3

y= x-3+0

y=x-3

compare to y=mx+c, where m is the gradient and c is the intercept on y-axis

m=1, c=-3

∴the y-intercept of the line is -3
