Answer:
x ≠ -5
Step-by-step explanation:
The easiest way is to factor the numerator.
x2 + 9x + 20 = (x + 4)(x + 5)
Then
(x2 + 9x + 20)/(x + 5) = (x + 4)(x + 5) / (x + 5) = x + 4,
with the restriction that x ≠ -5
Knowing how much space an object takes up would help minimize the amount of material because they know how much they have to order and would not have to order any extra
14x+2=12x
[subtract 2 on both sides]
14x=12x-2
[subtract 12x on both sides]
2x=-2
[divide 2 on both sides]
x=-1
Answer:
1) 12
2) Yes, there could be 16 people
3) 1/2 of one segment which is 1 block or 2 skinny blocks
4) 1/12
5) 1 of 4 people -> This means that each person gets 1.5/6 pieces which is greater than 0.66/12 piece
1.5/6 = 3/12 which is greater than 0.66/12 piece
Step-by-step explanation:
Firstly, seeing that the sequence is based on odd numbers I would say that this is the formula (which will allow you to know whatever term):
nth term = 2n-1
Hope this helps!
