Answer:

The correct option is 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given rational expression is

\frac{x+5}{x^2+6x+5}

Factorize the denominator.

The middle term can be written as 5x+x.

\frac{x+5}{x^2+5x+x+5}

\frac{x+5}{x(x+5)+1(x+5)}

\frac{x+5}{(x+5)(x+1)}

Cancel out the common factors.

\frac{1}{x+1}

The simplified form of the given expression is \frac{1}{x+1}. The factors of the denominator are (x+5) and (x+1), it means at x=-5 and x=-1, the value of denominator is zero.

The given expression is not defined for x=-1 and x=-5.

Therefore the correct option is 2.

Find the value of x in the below complementary angle 3x(5x+2)​
Natali [406]

Answer:

The value of x is 11

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Two angles are complementary if the sum of their measures is 90°</em>

Let us use this rule to solve our question

∵ The angle of measure (3x)° and the angle of measure (5x + 2)°

   are complementary angles

→ That means their sum equals 90°

∴ 3x + 5x + 2 = 90

→ Add the like terms in the left side

∵ (3x + 5x) + 2 = 90

∴ 8x + 2 = 90

→ Subtract 2 from both sides to move 2 from the left side to the right side

∵ 8x + 2 - 2 = 90 - 2

∴ 8x = 88

→ Divide both sides by 8 to find x

∵ 8x/8 = 88/8

∴ x = 11

∴ The value of x is 11

Tomtit [17]

We have the following:

3350000=3.35\cdot1000000=3.35\cdot10^6

therefore, the answer is 3.35 x 10^6
