<h2><u>Answer: 1/12</u></h2>

Step-by-step explanation: 2/3 / 8/1 is actually multiplying the first number by the reciprocal of the second. So 2/3 x 1/8. That equals 0.08333... or 1/12.

SOLUTIONS

Solve a given equations or algebraic symbols?

$\begin{gathered} f(x)=x^2+2x \\ g(x)=1-x^2 \end{gathered}$

(A)

$\begin{gathered} (f+g)(x)=(x^2+2x)+(1-x^2) \\ collect\text{ like terms} \\ x^2-x^2+2x+1 \\ (f+g)(x^)=2x+1 \end{gathered}$

(B)

$\begin{gathered} (f-g)(x)=(x^2+2x)-(1-x^2) \\ =x^2+2x-1+x^2 \\ =x^2+x^2+2x-1 \\ (f-g)(x)=2x^2+2x-1 \end{gathered}$

(C)

$\begin{gathered} fg(x)=(x^2+2x)(1-x^2) \\ =x^2-x^4+2x-2x^3 \\ fg(x)=-x^4-2x^3+x^2+2x \end{gathered}$

(D)

$\begin{gathered} \frac{f}{g}(x)=(x^2+2x)\div(1-x^2) \\ =\frac{x^2+2x}{1-x^2} \end{gathered}$

Chris and his brother leave the same point and run in opposite directions on a straight road. After running for 3 Hours they are

ikadub [295]

<span>Chris' average speed is 3.5mph: Lets take Chris' brother speed = B then Chris speed = (B+ 1) mph-------given in the question and: The average speed for covering 18 miles= chris' average speed + his brother's average speed = (B+ 1) + B since Speed = Distance covered / time taken then average speed for 18 miles can also be found by: 18 miles/3 hours = 6 miles per hour then we have; (B+ 1) + B = 6mph (B +1) = (6-B) B+B = 6-1=5 2B=5 B=5/2=2.5 mph (this is Chris' brother average speed) Hence Chris' average speed is = B+1= 2.5+1= 3.5mph</span>
