Multiply both sides by (x-2)(x+1) to clea fractions
x(x+1)+(x-1)(x-2)=(-1)(x-2)(x+1)
distribute
x^2+x+x^2-3x+2=-x^2+x-2
add like terms
2x^2-2x+2=-x^2+x+2
add x^2 to both sdes
3x^2-2x+2=x+2
minus x from both sides
3x^2-3x+2=2
minus 2 both sides
3x^2-3x=0
factor
(3x)(x-1)=0
set to zero

3x=0
x=0

x-1=0
x=1

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi,

We're dealing with linear functions. f(x)=mx+b

We have here the first function.

g(x)=3x

That's a linear function, with slope, and no linear coefficient since

But on the other hand, the functions below, they all describe parallel lines, since their slope has the same value. I've changed the letters to make it easier the comprehension.

Even though each one has the same slope value, they have different non zero linear coefficients, {-6,-18,6,18}. Unlike, the first one

h(x)=3(9x-2) \rightarrow h(x)= 27x-6\\i(x)=9(3x-2)\rightarrow i(x)=27x-18\\j(x)=3(9x+2)\rightarrow j(x)=27x+6 \\k(x)=9(3x+2)\rightarrow k(x)=27x+18\\

A possible solution would be adjusting any of these, whose operation would result in g(x)=3x, but

Like

y=9(\frac{3x}{9}-2)+18 =3x

Solve - pv + 40 &lt; 65 for v<br> solve 7w - 3r = 15 for r
Katarina [22]

Answer:

v > -25/p

r = -5 +7/3 w

Step-by-step explanation:

- pv + 40 < 65

Subtract 40 from each side

- pv + 40-40 < 65-40

-pv < 25

Divide each side by -p  (remember to flip the inequality since we are dividing by a negative)

-pv/-p > 25/-p

v > -25/p


7w - 3r = 15

Subtract 7w from each side

7w-7w - 3r = 15-7w

-3r = 15-7w

Divide by -3

-3r/-3 = (15-7w)/-3

r = -5 +7/3 w
