6-5 solving rational equations 8/x+3=1/x+1

Mathematics
1 answer:
AfilCa [17]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

x = -5/7

Step-by-step explanation:

8/(x+3)=1/(x+1)

Using cross products

8*(x+1) = 1*(x+3)

Distribute

8x+8 = x+3

Subtract x from each side

8x-x +8 = x+3-x

7x +8 =3

Subtract 8 from each side

7x+8-8 = 3-8

7x = -5

Divide by 7

7x/7 = -5/7

x = -5/7

Which expression represents the volume of the prism?
Tamiku [17]

Answer:

x³-2x²  = x2(x – 2) cubic units

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a prism is found by multiplying the base area by the height. The base area is a parallelogram and so the area is x*(x-2) = x² -2x.

Multiply this area by the height x.

V = x(x² - 2x) = x³-2x²

This is the same as x2(x – 2) cubic units.

AnnyKZ [126]
<span>When a = 3 and b ≠ 5, the system will be inconsistent because the lines will be parallel. When a = 3 and b = 5, the system will be consistent and dependent because they represent the same line.</span>

Data on the oxide thickness of semiconductor wafers are as follows: 425, 431, 416, 419, 421, 436, 418, 410, 431, 433, 423, 426,
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

423

Step-by-step explanation:

The sample mean is a point estimate of the population mean.

Therefore a point estimate of the mean oxide thickness for all wafers in the population is the mean of the sample data on the oxide thickness of semiconductor wafers.

To calculate the sample mean, we sum all the sample data and divide by the sample size which is 24.  We get 423.33 ≈423
