Answer:

6x + 16

Step-by-step explanation:

To simplify this, distribute each term in the parentheses to the 2.

2 · 3x = 6x

2 · 8 = 16

Putting these two terms together, the final simplified expression is 6x + 16.

Solving Rational equations. LCD method. Show work. Image attached.

Dmitry [639]

Answer:

$b=1$

Step-by-step explanation:

The given rational equation is

$\frac{2b-5}{b-2} -2=\frac{3}{b+2}$

The Least Common Denominator is $(b+2)(b-2)$ .

Multiply each term in the equation by the LCD.

$(b+2)(b-2)\times \frac{2b-5}{b-2} -(b+2)(b-2)\times2=(b+2)(b-2)\times\frac{3}{b+2}$

Simplify;

$(b+2)\times \frac{2b-5}{1} -2(b+2)(b-2)=(b-2)\times\frac{3}{1}$

$(b+2)(2b-5) -2(b+2)(b-2)=3(b-2)$

Expand and group similar terms

$2b^2-5b+4b-10 -2(b^2-4)=3b-6$

$2b^2-5b+4b-10 -2b^2+8=3b-6$

$-b-2=3b-6$

$3b+b=-2+6$

$4b=4$

$b=1$

If JK and LM are congruent and parallel, then JKL and MLK are congruent.

viktelen [127]

Answer:

Given statement is TRUE.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that line segment JK and LM are parallel. From picture we see that LK is transversal line.

We know that corresponding angles formed by transversal line are congruent.

Hence ∠JKL = ∠ MLK ...(i)

Now consider triangles JKL and MLK

JK = LM {Given}

∠JKL = ∠ MLK { Using (i) }

KL = KL {common sides}

Hence by SAS property of congruency of triangles, ΔJKL and ΔMLK are congruent.

Hence given statement is TRUE.
