\frac{3x}{x-4}  - \frac{x+3}{x-4} = \frac{2x+7}{x^2-16}

We factor the denominators

Factor x^2 - 16

x^2 - 4^2

We use a^2 - b^2 = (a+b)(a-b)

so x^2 - 4^2 = (x+4)(x-4)

Replace it in the given equation

\frac{3x}{x-4}  - \frac{x+3}{x-4} = \frac{2x+7}{(x+4)(x-4)}

Excluded values are the values that makes the denominator 0

we have (x-4)  and (x+4) in the denominator

We set the denominator =0 and solve for x

x-4 =0

Add 4 on both sides

x= 4

x+4=0

subtract 4 onboth side

so x= -4

Excluded values are x=-4 and x=4

Answer is x =-4 and x =4

Explanation:

\frac{3x}{x-4} -\frac{x+3}{x+4}=\frac{2x+7}{x^2-16}\\Let us take LCD\\\frac{3x(x+3)-(x+3)(x-4)}{x^2-16}= \frac{2x+7}{x^2-16}

We find that there is a common denominator.

This should not be equal to 0.

i.e. x ≠4 or x ≠-4

Thus x=4 and x=-4 are the excluded values for the rational equation.

Once we exclude these values, we cancel and equate numerator

3x(x+4)-(x+3)(x-4) = 2x+7

Simplify to get  3x^2+12x-x^2+x-12 = 2x+7

2x^2+11x-19 =0

Thus when we exclude those values, we et a quadratic equation with 2 solutions.

Answer:

  (a) 315°

  (b) 3°

  (c) 238°

Step-by-step explanation:

Bearings are measured clockwise from north. The triangle described is illustrated in the attachment.

<h3>(a)</h3>

The bearing of P from R is 180° different from the bearing of R from P it will be ...

  135° +180° = 315° . . . . bearing of P from R

__

<h3>(b)</h3>

The bearing of Q from R is 48° more than the bearing of P from R, so is ...

  315° +48° = 363°, or 3° . . . . bearing of Q from R

__

<h3>(c)</h3>

The angle QPR has a value that makes the sum of angles in the triangle equal to 180°. It is ...

  180° -48° -55° = 77°

The bearing of Q from P is 77° less than the bearing of R from P, so is ...

  135° -77° = 58°

As above, the reverse bearing from Q to P is ...

  58° +180° = 238° . . . . bearing of P from Q
