Step-by-step explanation:

x+3/x-2 - 1-x/x= 17/4

now let's put the expression on the upper side so it I'll be

x+3-x-2-1-x-x= 17×14

x-x-x-x+3-2-1= 238

+3-3= 238

= 238 answer

Answer:

The solution set is {-2/9, 4).

Step-by-step explanation:

(x + 3)/(x-2)  - (1-x)/x = 17/4

Multiply through by the LCD ( = 4x(x - 2):

(x + 3)4x - 4(1 - x)(x - 2) = 17x(x - 2)

4x^2 + 12x - 4(x - 2 - x^2 + 2x) - 17x^2 + 34x = 0

4x^2 + 12x - 4x + 8 + 4x^2 - 8x - 17x^2 + 34x = 0

-9x^2 + 34x + 8 = 0

We need 2 numbers  whose product = -72 ( -9 * 8) and whose sum is 34.

These are +36 and -2, so we write:

-9x^2 + 36x - 2x + 8 = 0

-9x(x - 4) - 2(x - 4) = 0

(-9x + 2)(x - 4) = 0

x = -2/9, 4.

A sailboat travels a distance of 2 1/2 miles in 1/6 of an hour. Which complex fraction represents the unit rate in miles per hou
Vsevolod [243]
1/6 of an hour= 10 because 60mins=1hour & 60/6=10 so the sailboat travels 2 1/2 miles in 10 mins. So the complex fraction would be 2 &1/2 over 10. Hope it helps!

Art [367]
The equation you want to use is this:

10x = 530                             10 pages for x days

x = 530/10                            
530 pages divided by 10 pages

So the answer is,

53 days

dsp73

Answer:

Yes it would

Step-by-step explanation:

Lanie's room is in the shape of a parallelogram.

Lanie has a rectangular rug that is 6 feet wide and 10 feet long.

Area of a rectangle = Length × Width

Area of the rectangular rug = 10 feet × 6 feet

= 60 square feet

We are told that:

The floor of her room is shown below and has an area of 108 square feet.

Hence, the rug would fit on the floor of her room because it's area is within the area of the floor of her room.
