Answer:

<h3> The equation has one valid solution and no extraneous of solutions.</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression;

4x/3x+1 = x/2x+10

We are to get the nature of the value of x

Cross multiply;

x(3x+1) = 4x(2x+10)

3x²+x = 8x²+40x

Collect like terms;

3x²-8x² + x - 40x = 0

-5x²+x -40x = 0

-5x²-39x = 0

-5x² = 39x

-5x = 39

x = -39/5

<em>Since we have just one value of x hence, the equation has one valid solution and no extraneous of solutions.</em>

The answer is 2x(2x²+x+1).

When we subtract polynomials we combine like terms:
(9x³+2x²-5x+4)-(5x³-7x+4)

9x³-5x³=4x³
2x²- 0 = 2x²
-5x--7x=-5x+7x=2x
4-4=0

This gives us
4x³+2x²+2x

Each of these is divisible by 2, and each has an x, so we factor those out:
2x( )

4x³/2x = 2x²:
2x(2x² )

2x²/2x=x:
2x(2x²+x )

2x/2x = 1:
2x(2x²+x+1)

LET me know how you got the answer

andre [41]

6/2*3 / 3(3)

First simplify the numerator: 6/2*3 = 3*3 = 9

Next simplify the denominator: 3(3) = 3*3 = 9

So you have 9/9, which equals 1.

The 3rd answer is correct.

Fine the equation of the line that is perpendicular to the given line and passes through the given point. Enter the right side o

Kipish [7]

Answer:

$y=-\frac{4}{7} x+\frac{55}{7}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Change the given equation to slope-intercept to get $y=\frac{7}{4}x-\frac{1}{4}$ . When you multiply the slopes of perpendicular lines, you get -1. -1 divided by $\frac{7}{4}$ is $-\frac{4}{7}$ . The slope of the new line is then $-\frac{4}{7}$ . The perpendicular line passes through (5, 5) so you can have the equation $5=-\frac{4}{7} (5)+b$ . Simplifying gets $b = \frac{55}{7}$ . So now the final equation for the perpendicular line is $y=-\frac{4}{7} x+\frac{55}{7}$

suppose you have $250 in a savings account and decide to save a additional $10 peach month. write the equation to find the total

mestny [16]

Y=10x+250

The slope represents the amount of money added in per month, and the y-intercept represents the original amount.

Hope this helps!
