Square both sides to get the binomial out of the square root:
(√(2x + 8))² = (2)²
2x + 8 = 4
2x = 4 - 8
2x = - 4
Divide both sides by 2 to isolate the variable X:
x = - 4 / 2
x = - 2
Your answer is option C.
<span>For a parallelogram to be proven to be a rectange, the opposide sides must be parallel and the two adjacent sides must be perpendicular.
For two parallel sides, the slope of the two sides is equal.
Thus, for the parallelogram to be a rectangle, AB is parallel to CD.
The slope of AB = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) while the slope of CD = (y4 - y3)/(x4 - x3)
Also, BC is perpedicular to CD.
For two perpendicular sides, the product of the slopes is -1.
The slope of BC is given by (y3 - y2)/(x3 - x2).
Therefore, for the parallelogram to be a rectangle.
(y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) = (y4 - y3)/(x4 - x3) and (y4 - y3)/(x4 - x3) x (y3 - y2)/(x3 - x2) = -1.
The third option is the correct answer.</span>
Two triangles are said to be congruent when the have the same sides and the same angles. When a figure is dilated by a value, the size of that figure changes.
Therefore, when Triangle MNO is reflected across the y-axis and then dilated by a scale factor of 1.8 to form triangle MꞌꞌNꞌꞌOꞌꞌ, the two triangles are similar but not congruent.
Answer:
4x + 6
Step-by-step explanation:

To determine what the numerator would be, after simplifying both fractions, take the following steps:
Step 1: Factorise the denominator of the first fraction, x² + 3x + 2.
Thus,
x² + 2x + x + 2
(x² + 2x) + (x + 2)
x(x + 2) +1(x + 2)
(x + 1)(x + 2)
We would now have the following as our new fractions to add together and simplify:

Step 2: find the highest common factor of the denominator of both fractions.
Highest common factor of (x + 1)(x + 2) and (x + 1) = (x + 1)(x + 2)
Step 3: To add both fractions, divide the highest common factor gotten in step 2 by each denominator, and then multiply the result by the numerator of each fraction.
Thus,




Therefore, the numerator of the simplified form sum of both fractions = 4x + 6
