Answer:

It lost 22 feathers.

Step-by-step explanation:

To complete this problem, this expression will be used: 2x/100.

2(1100)/100 {Multiply 2 by 1100}

2200/100 {Simplify by cancelling out 100}

22/1 {Divide}

22 feathers were lost.

How do you solve and simplify

DedPeter [7]

F(x) = 1/(x+2) & g(x) = x/(x-3)

(f(x) + g(x) = 1/(x+2) + x/(x-3). Reduce to same denominator:

1/(x+2) + x/(x-3) =(x-3) + x(x-3)/(x+2).(x-3) ==> (x²+3x-3)/(x+2).(x-3)

Given that f(x) = 5x^2-3x+7 and f(g(x))=(5x^4)/9 + (17x^2)/3 + 21. Find all possible values for the sum of the coefficients in t

shtirl [24]

steps

(x) = 5x^2-3x+7

refine

x=5x^2-3x+7

Switch sides

5x^2-3x+7-x=x-x

Subtract x from both sides

5x^2-4x+7=0

Solve with the quadratic formula
