I believe the answer is 1/3
B Is the answer ......... z
Answer:
The correct answer is: 3x² (4x - 1) / (x - 4) (x - 3) ∧ restriction x ≠ 3, x ≠ 4, x ≠ 0 and x ≠ 1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
((16x² - 8x + 1) / (x² - 7x + 12)) : ((20x² - 5x) / 15x³) =
dividing with one fraction is the same as multiplying with its reciprocal value
((16x² - 8x + 1) / (x² - 7x + 12)) · (15x³ / (20x² - 5x))
First we need to factorize both numerators and denominators
16x² - 8x + 1 = (4x - 1)² This is square binomial
x² - 7x + 12 = x² - 4x - 3x + 12 = x (x - 4) - 3 (x - 4) = (x - 4) ( x - 3)
20x² - 5x = 5x (4x - 1)
(4x - 1)² / (x - 4) (x - 3) · 15x³ / 5x (4x - 1)
The existence of this rational algebraic expression is possible only if it is:
x - 4 ≠ 0 and x - 3 ≠ 0 and x ≠ 0 and 4x - 1 ≠ 0 =>
x ≠ 4 and x ≠ 3 and x ≠ 0 and x ≠ 1/4 This is restriction
Finally we have:
3 x² (4x - 1) / (x - 4) (x - 3)

Answer: In 5 years it will be worth £455
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1
Given
The cost of the T.V. for Colin = £530.
The rate of depreciation per year = 3%
Time/ period = 5 years
Formulae to be used
F = P X (1 - r) ^ n
where
F = the future value after depreciation
P = the present value.
r =the interest rate per time period
n = the time/ periods
Step 2--- SOLVING
F = P X (1- r) ^ n
F= 530 x (1-0.03) ^ 5
=530 x 0.858734
=£455.129
Rounding up to the nearest penny where appropriate = £455
