What is the difference?

Ganezh [65]

Answer:

$\frac{x^2+4x-1}{x(x+2)}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$\frac{x+5}{x+2}$ - $\frac{x+1}{x^2+2x}$ ← factor denominator

= $\frac{x+5}{x+2}$ - $\frac{x+1}{x(x+2)}$

We require the fractions to have a common denominator.

Multiply numerator/denominator of first fraction by x

= $\frac{x(x+5)}{x(x+2)}$ - $\frac{x+1}{x(x+2)}$

Subtract terms on numerator leaving the common denominator

= $\frac{x^2+5x-x-1}{x(x+2)}$

= $\frac{x^2+4x-1}{x(x+2)}$

A line passes through the point (-8, 6) and has a slope of 3/2

Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

y-6=3/2(x+8)

Step-by-step explanation:

so the point slope form is y-y₁=m(x-x₁)

so enter the points (-8, 6)

y-6= 3/2(x-(-8))

y-6=3/2(x+8)

if a number is a natural number, then it is also a whole number? what is the Inverse, the Converse, the Contrapositive, and the

aev [14]

I believe you're learning geometry. Anyways, here are examples of natural numbers: 1, 2, 3... Meanwhile, here are examples of whole numbers: 0, 1, 2, 3... Natural numbers are all the positive whole numbers. Whole numbers are quantities that are both positive and neutral, and don't include any fractions or decimals.
