What is the missing expression that would make the left-hand-side of the equation equal to the right-hand-side?
o-na [289]

Given:

The equation is

\dfrac{???}{x-2}/\dfrac{x^2-1}{x^2-4x+4}=\dfrac{5(x-2)}{x-1}

To find:

The missing value.

Solution:

Let the missing value be k.

\dfrac{k}{x-2}/\dfrac{x^2-1}{x^2-4x+4}=\dfrac{5(x-2)}{x-1}

\dfrac{k}{x-2}\times \dfrac{x^2-2(x)(2)+2^2}{x^2-1^2}=\dfrac{5(x-2)}{x-1}

Using the formulae (a-b)^2=a^2-2ab+b^2 and (a-b)(a+b)=a^2-b^2.

\dfrac{k}{x-2}\times \dfrac{(x-2)^2}{(x-1)(x+1)}=\dfrac{5(x-2)}{x-1}

\dfrac{k(x-2)}{(x-1)(x+1)}=\dfrac{5(x-2)}{x-1}

Cancel out the common factors from both sides.

\dfrac{k}{x+1}=5

Multiply both sides by (x+1).

k=5(x+1)

Therefore, the missing value is 5(x+1).

Michael spends an average of $120 per month going out to lunch and dinner. If he can cut that
expeople1 [14]

Answer:

If he spends $120 dollars a month, and he cut's that down to $50 a month, we should create a pattern to visualize the months.

Step-by-step explanation:

120- 50= 70 ($70 saved each month)

Month 1- $70 saved total

Month 2- $140 saved total

Month 3- $210 saved total

Month 4- $280 saved total

Month 5- $350 saved total

Month 6- $420 saved total

It takes 6 months to get 400 saved. We could also divide to get

5.714285, but it would takes 6 months before reaching the goal. :)
