D BECAUSE OF THE POSITIVE 2
F(x) = 1/(x+2) & g(x) = x/(x-3)
(f(x) + g(x) = 1/(x+2) + x/(x-3). Reduce to same denominator:
1/(x+2) + x/(x-3) =(x-3) + x(x-3)/(x+2).(x-3) ==> (x²+3x-3)/(x+2).(x-3)
Answer:
52-13 = 39
Step-by-step explanation:
This is simple, next time use a calculator and calculate yourself
Let f be the height of the fir trees
Let p be the height of the pine trees
We know from the problem that
f + p = 21 and 4f = 24 + p
rearrange the 2nd equation to get p = 4f - 24 and substitute into the other equation
so...
f + 4f - 24 = 21
5f - 24 = 21
5f = 45
f = 9 - height of the fir tree
substitute back into the 1st equation
9 + p = 21
p = 12 - height of the pine tree
