Solve the rational equation: pls help

Mathematics
1 answer:
Ray Of Light [21]3 years ago

Answer:

A. x = 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify the equation:

(3x^2+1)/(x-1) + x = 4 + 4/(x-1)

(3x^2+1-4)/(x-1) = 4-x

(3x^2-3)/(x-1) = 4-x

Since (3x^2-3) = 3(x^2-1) and x^2-1 = (x+1)(x-1), substitute 3x^2-3 for 3(x+1)(x-1)

3(x+1)(x-1)/(x-1) = 4-x

Cancel (x-1) from the numerator and denominator:

3(x+1) = 4-x

Isolate x:

3(x+1) = 4-x

3x+3 = 4-x

4x = 1

x = 1/4.

x = 1/4 is the only valid solution unless both sides being undefined would count as a valid equation, then x = 1 would also be valid.

Suppose the circumference of a circle is \color{blue}{16\pi}16πstart color blue, 16, pi, end color blue. what is its radius?
Sauron [17]
<span>The circumference of a circle is equal to its diameter multiplied by pi. Since the circumference here is 16*pi, the diameter of the circle is 16 units. The diameter of a circle is two times the radius, so we divide 16 in half and find our result that the radius is 8 units.</span>

What does standard deviation mean?
Sveta_85 [38]
Standard deviation is: It is a measure of how spread out numbers are. It is the square root of the Variance, and the Variance is the average of the squared differences from the Mean.

For example: To find the standard deviation, you have to add up all the numbers in the data set, then divide by how many numbers there are, and that will get you your answer.

Example,  Say your data set is: 9, 2, 5, 4, 12, 7, 8, 11, 9, 3, 7, 4, 12, 5, 4, 10, 9, 6, 9, 4.

The Mean is: 9 + 2 + 5 + 4 + 12 + 7 + 8 + 11 + 9 + 3 + 7 + 4 + 12 + 5 + 4 + 10+ 9 + 6 + 9 + 4. Over 20. That equals: 104 over 20 = 7.

So, the Standard Variance and  Mean is: 7 for this problem.

Hope I helped!

Solve for x:<br> (x+4) = 7.(1 point)<br> 2<br> Ox=3<br> Ox=5<br> Ox=6<br> O x = 10
MArishka [77]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have the equation:

x+4=7

To solve for x, subtract 4 from both sides:

(x+4)-4=(7)-4

The left side cancels. Subtract on the right:

x=3

So, the value of x is 3.

And our answer is A.

And we're done!
