Answer:

x∈(20/3;26/3)

Step-by-step explanation:

12 < 2x-4/3 < 16

first we add 4/3 to each side

12+4/3<2x<16+4/3

we bring to the same denominator

12*3/3+4/3<2x<16*3/3+4/3

(36+4)/3<2x<(48+4/3)

40/3<2x<52/3

now we divide by 2

20/3<x<26/3

x∈(20/3;26/3)

Given that p=x^2-y^2/x^2+xy

Nataly [62]

Answer:

p = - $\frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

p = $\frac{x^2-y^2}{x^2+xy}$ ( factorise numerator and denominator )

x² - y² ← is a difference of squares and factors as (x - y)(x + y)

x² + xy ← factor out x from each term

= x(x + y) , thus

p = $\frac{(x-y)(x+y)}{x(x+y)}$ ← cancel (x + y) on numerator/ denominator

= $\frac{x-y}{x}$ ← substitute x = - 4, y = - 6

= $\frac{-4-(-6)}{-4}$

= $\frac{-4+6}{-4}$

= $\frac{2}{-4}$ = - $\frac{1}{2}$
