It is pretty easy to solve this equation, given that the denominator is the same of either side (x + 5). You don't even need the brackets.
So:

4x+2/x+5 + 3x+1/x+5 = 4x+2+3x+1/x+5 = 7x + 3/x+5

The correct answer is 7x + 3 / x + 5.
It's the same as if you were adding for example 2/3 and 6/3 - since the denominator is the same, you should just add 2 and 6 and get 8/3.

Here is Triangle A. Lin created a scaled copy of Triangle A with an area of 72 square units. a. How many times larger is the are
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Triangle A is attached in the image below.

The base of triangle A is 3 units and its height is 3 units. The area of a triangle  is given as:

Area = (1/2) × base × height

Area of triangle A = (1/2) × base × height = (1/2) × 3 × 3 = 4.5 unit²

Area of the scaled copy = 72 unit²

Ratio of area = Area of the scaled copy / Area of triangle A = 72 unit² / 4.5 unit² = 16

Hence the scaled copy area is 16 times larger than that of triangle A.

b) For the scaled copy:

Area of the scaled copy = (1/2) × base × height = 72 unit²

base × height = 144

Since the base and height are equal

base² = 144

base = 12, also height = 12

Base of scaled copy = 12 = 4 × base of triangle A

Therefore the scale factor used is 4

I've never even seen a box and whiskers plot before!! Should be pretty straight forward though. Thanks!
alisha [4.7K]
For a box and whispers plot, each section represents 25% of the data. Therefore, the area from 85-99 represents 25% of the data.

25% of 24 students= 6 students
Final answer: 6 students
