Answer:
x = 5 and -2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the function of x to be;
f(x) = (x-5)(x+2)/x+1
The value of x that will make the function zero can be calculated for by equating the given function to zero first to have;
If f(x) = 0, then;
(x-5)(x+2)/x+1 = 0
Cross multiplying;
(x-5)(x+2) = 0
(x-5) = 0 and x+2 = 0
x = 5 and x = -2
The value of x that will make the function zero is therefore 5 and -2

Step-by-step explanation:
Since BD bisects ∠ ABC , then
∠ ABD = ∠ DBC , substitute values
3x + 4 = 55 ( subtract 4 from both sides )
3x = 51 ( divide both sides by 3 )
x = 17
Answer:
x = 5; y = 138, z= 42
Step-by-step explanation:
4x- 17 = 3 [ opposite sides of a parallelogram are equal]
4x = 3+ 17 = 20; X= 20/4 = 5
138 + Z = 180( angle on a straight line)
Z is an alternate angles to the remaining angle off 138 forming the straight line.
z= 180-138 = 42 degrees
Y = 138 [ opposite angles of a regular quadilareral been equal]
