Answer:

For an equation like:

y = a*x + b

a is the slope, and this is the rate of change of the function.

For the case of the problem, we know that the equation represents the amount of oxygen in the spaceship as a function of time. Where as the time passes, the quantity of oxygen decreases.

Then the slope is the rate of change that tells how the quantity of oxygen changes as time passes. Then the slope is the amount of oxygen that is consumed per unit of time.

Answer:

Sum of $\frac{7x}{x^2-4}$ and $\frac{2}{x+2}$ is $\mathbf{\frac{9x-4}{x^2-4}}$

Option B is correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find sum of $\frac{7x}{x^2-4}$ and $\frac{2}{x+2}$

Finding sum of $\frac{7}{x^2-4}$ and $\frac{2}{x+2}$ :

$\frac{7x}{x^2-4}+\frac{2}{x+2}$

We know that $x^2-4 =(x+2)(x-2)$

Replacing x^2-4

$\frac{7x}{(x+2)(x-2)}+\frac{2}{x+2}$

Now, taking LCM of (x+2)(x-2) and (x+2) we get (x+2)(x-2)

$=\frac{7x+2(x-2)}{(x+2)(x-2)}\\=\frac{7x+2x-4}{(x+2)(x-2)}\\=\frac{9x-4}{(x+2)(x-2)}\\=\frac{9x-4}{x^2-4}$

So, Sum of $\frac{7x}{x^2-4}$ and $\frac{2}{x+2}$ is $\mathbf{\frac{9x-4}{x^2-4}}$

Option B is correct answer.

HELPPP frenss!!! HURRY j

Answer:

(2, -7)

x = 2

y = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve this system of equations by elimination.

Start by multiplying the first equation by 2:

$2(4x)+2(3y)=2(-13)\\8x+6y=-26$

Next, multiply the second equation by 3:

$3(-5x)+3(2y)=3(-24)\\-15x+6y=-72$

Notice that both equations now have a "6y", meaning we can subtract both equations and thereby eliminating the variable "y" from the equation:

$8x+6y-(-15x+6y)=-26-(-72)\\8x+6y+15x-6y=-26+72\\23x=46$

Divide both sides by 23

$x=2$

Substitute 2 for "x" to solve for "y".

$4x+3y=-13\\4(2)+3y=-13\\8+3y=-13$

Subtract 8 from both sides:

$3y=-21$

Divide both sides by 3:

$y=-7$

Therefore the answer is:

$(x, y)=(2, -7)$

Additional Comments:

Note that we can only divide, subtract, multiply, or add both sides of the equation by the same quantity due to the Division, Subtraction, Multiplication, or Addition Property of Equality. These properties state that if you divide/subtract/multiply/add one side of the equation by one quantity, you must do the same to the other side of the equation so that it remains an equation.
