Answer:

trees cost $15

Shrub cost $7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Rita paid $82 for 5 trees and 1 shrub

5x+y= 82---------1

Lilly bought 2 trees and 1 shrub for $37

2x+y= 37----------2

from 1

y= 82-5x

put the value of y in 2

2x+82-5x= 37

2x-5x= 37-82

-3x=-45

x= 45/3

x=$15

put the value of x in 1

5(x)+y= 82

5*15+y=82

75+y=82

y=82-75

y=$7

Hence, trees cost $15

Shrub cost $7

Eliminating by multiplying <br> X+3y=1<br> -5x+4y=-24
gavmur [86]

Answer:

y = -1         x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

(X+3y=1) 5            Multiply this equation by 5 to cancel out the x

-5x+4y=-24

-5x + 4y= -24

+ 5x + 15y = 5       Add both equations together

19y = -19                Divide both sides by 19

y = -1

Plug -1 for y into one of the equations

x + 3(-1) = 1             Multiply 3(-1)

x - 3 = 1

 + 3 + 3                  Add 3 to both sides

x = 4

(x^(2)-11x+30)/(x^(2)-25)*(x^(2)+6x+5)/(x-5x-6) simplify the rational expression
DanielleElmas [232]
Simplify the following:
((x^2 - 11 x + 30) (x^2 + 6 x + 5))/((x^2 - 25) (x - 5 x - 6))

The factors of 5 that sum to 6 are 5 and 1. So, x^2 + 6 x + 5 = (x + 5) (x + 1):
((x + 5) (x + 1) (x^2 - 11 x + 30))/((x^2 - 25) (x - 5 x - 6))

The factors of 30 that sum to -11 are -5 and -6. So, x^2 - 11 x + 30 = (x - 5) (x - 6):
((x - 5) (x - 6) (x + 5) (x + 1))/((x^2 - 25) (x - 5 x - 6))

x - 5 x = -4 x:
((x - 5) (x - 6) (x + 5) (x + 1))/((x^2 - 25) (-4 x - 6))

Factor -2 out of -4 x - 6:
((x - 5) (x - 6) (x + 5) (x + 1))/(-2 (2 x + 3) (x^2 - 25))

x^2 - 25 = x^2 - 5^2:
((x - 5) (x - 6) (x + 5) (x + 1))/(-2 (x^2 - 5^2) (2 x + 3))

Factor the difference of two squares. x^2 - 5^2 = (x - 5) (x + 5):
((x - 5) (x - 6) (x + 5) (x + 1))/(-2(x - 5) (x + 5) (2 x + 3))

((x - 5) (x - 6) (x + 5) (x + 1))/((x - 5) (x + 5) (-2) (2 x + 3)) = ((x - 5) (x + 5))/((x - 5) (x + 5))×((x - 6) (x + 1))/(-2 (2 x + 3)) = ((x - 6) (x + 1))/(-2 (2 x + 3)):
((x - 6) (x + 1))/(-2 (2 x + 3))

Multiply numerator and denominator of ((x - 6) (x + 1))/(-2 (2 x + 3)) by -1:

Answer: (-(x - 6) (x + 1))/(2 (2 x + 3))
