Add and Subtract Rational Expressions with a Common Denominator

Mathematics
1 answer:
Sladkaya [172]2 years ago

Answer:

\displaystyle \frac{4q^2-q+3}{q^2+6q+5}-\frac{3q^2-q-6}{q^2+6q+5}=\frac{q^2+9}{q^2+6q+5}

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Simplifying Rational Expressions</u>

If two or more rational expressions have the same denominator, the add and subtract operations are done only with the numerator. The final denominator will be the common of both.

The expression is:

\displaystyle \frac{4q^2-q+3}{q^2+6q+5}-\frac{3q^2-q-6}{q^2+6q+5}

Operating on the numerators:

\displaystyle \frac{4q^2-q+3}{q^2+6q+5}-\frac{3q^2-q-6}{q^2+6q+5}=\frac{4q^2-q+3-(3q^2-q-6)}{q^2+6q+5}

Removing parentheses:

\displaystyle \frac{4q^2-q+3}{q^2+6q+5}-\frac{3q^2-q-6}{q^2+6q+5}=\frac{4q^2-q+3-3q^2+q+6}{q^2+6q+5}

Simplifying:

\boxed{\displaystyle \frac{4q^2-q+3}{q^2+6q+5}-\frac{3q^2-q-6}{q^2+6q+5}=\frac{q^2+9}{q^2+6q+5}}

The expression cannot be further simplified.

Goran rented a truck for one day. There was a base fee of $17.99 , and there was an additional charge of 75 cents for each mile
Vikki [24]
Cost of the total miles travelled
= $191.24 - $17.99
= $173.25

Miles travelled
= $173.25 ÷ 0.75
= 129.9375 miles
≈ 130 miles (3s.f)

To travel 80 miles, it takes Sue, riding a moped, 2 hours less time than it takes Doreen to travel 60 miles riding a bicycle. Su
andriy [413]

Answer:

Time taken by Doreen is 6 hours and speed is 10 miles per hour.

Time taken by Sue is 4 hours and speed is 20 miles per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the speed of Doreen be x

According to the question  speed of Sue   is = x+10

time  taken By Sue to cover 80 miles = \frac{80}{x+10}

time taken by Doreen to travel 60 miles = \frac{60}{x}

According to question Sue take two hours less than Doreen takes

therefore

\frac{60}{x} - \frac{80}{x+10} =2

\frac{60(x+10)-80x}{x(x+10)} =2

60(x+10) -80x = 2(x(x+10)

60x+600-80x = 2x^2+20x\\

simplifying it ,we get

2x^2+40x-600=0\\

Dividing both sides by 2 ,we get

x^2+20x-300=0\\

solving it for x ,we get

(x+30)(x-10) =0

x =-30 which is not possible

x =10 miles per hour

Speed of Doreen = 10 miles per hour

Speed of Sue = 10+10 = 20 miles per hour

Time taken by Doreen = 60 divided by 10 = 6 hours

Time taken  by Sue = 80 divided by 20 = 4 hours
