Answer:
The correct quotient is 3.
I think Derek has mistaken to divide
by
.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have to check the quotient of
.
Part A:
Now,
.
=
So, the correct quotient is 3.
Part B:
Derek says that the quotient is
.
So, I think Derek has mistaken to divide
by
. (Answer)
Start with

We observe that both fractions are not defined if
. So, we will assume
.
We multiply both numerator and denominator of the first fraction by 3 and we sum the two fractions:

We multiply both sides by
:

We move everything to one side and solve the quadratic equation:

We check the solution:

which is true

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Taking equation (1)

Multiplying both sides by 2

Adding 6y to both sides

Putting this in (2)
5(18+6y) + y = 28
5(18+6y) + y = 28
90 + 30y+y = 28
31y+90-28 = 0
31 y + 62 = 0
31y = -62
Dividing both sides by 31
y = -2
Now,
x = 18 + 6y
x = 18+6(-2)
x = 18-12
x = 6
Answer:
SOLVE FOR X
x=2
