The correct equations in the question are:

(a) \dfrac{x}{x^2+x-2}   (b) \dfrac{6-x}{x^2-3x-54}

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From above:

a) \dfrac{x}{x^2+x-2}  

We are to find the roots of the quadratic equation at the denominator.

i.e.

x²+x-2 =  x² + 2x - x - 2

= x(x+2) - 1(x+2)

= (x -1 ) (x + 2)

Thus;

\mathbf{\dfrac{x}{x^2+x-2} = \dfrac{A}{x-1} + \dfrac{B}{x+2}}

b) \dfrac{6-x}{x^2-3x-54}

The quadratic equation roots can be calculated by finding two numbers that if we multiply then, we will get -54 and if we add or subtract them, we will get -3

x²-3x -54 =  x² - 9x +6x - 54

=  x(x-9) + 6(x-9)

= (x + 6) (x - 9)

\mathbf{\dfrac{6-x}{x^2-3x-54} = \dfrac{A}{x+6} + \dfrac{B}{x-9}}

A van travels 150 miles on 6 gallons of gas. How many gallons will it need to travel 325 miles?
shtirl [24]
<h3>Answer:  C) 13 gallons</h3>

============================================================

Work Shown:

(150 miles)/(6 gallons) = (325 miles)/(x gallons)

150/6 = 325/x

150*x = 6*325 .... see note below

150x = 1950

x = 1950/150 .... divide both sides by 150

x = 13 gallons is the final answer

-----------

Note: in this step, I cross multiplied. The general template for cross multiplication is that we go from A/B = C/D to A*D = B*C. As the name implies, the "cross" refers to the "X" shape that forms when you multiply the terms.

Midway through the fundraiser, Mrs Little, the sponsor, discovers a container of buttermilk in the back of the fridge. It has 6
solong [7]

Answer: 6 recipes

Step-by-step explanation: Just divide the 6 cups of buttermilk by 7/8 because each recipe need 7/8 cup of butter milk. You will get a number like this 6.857142857142857 (there are probably more decimals that come after it.) But, all the numbers after the 6 are useless because more recipes can't be made with those because you need at least 7/8  cups for one recipe. So, this will make 6 recipes. Hope this helps!
