Answer:

x = 21

Step-by-step explanation:

The parallel lines divide the segments proportionally.

x/27 = 28/36

x = 27(28/36) . . . . multiply by 27 (in your head: (3·9)(4·7)/(4·9) = 3·7)

x = 21

Subtract the rational expression 1/x^2-x-6 - x/x+2.

Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x² - x -6 = x² + 2x - 3x - 3*2

=x(x + 2) - 3(x + 2)

= (x + 2 )(x - 3)

$\frac{1}{x^{2}-x-6}+\frac{x}{x+2}=\frac{1}{(x +2 )(x - 3)}-\frac{x}{x + 2}\\$

$= \frac{1}{(x+2)(x-3)}-\frac{x(x-3)}{(x+2)(x-3)}\\\\=\frac{1-x(x-3)}{(x+2)(x-3)}\\\\=\frac{1-x^{2}+3x}{(x+2)(x-3)}\\\\$

Which of the following shows the solution to the inequality

otez555 [7]

Answer:

I got x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

First to isolate the variable you add 3 to both sides which will give you 1/2x is less than or equal to 2. Then divide both sides by 1/2 and you will get x = 1. To check the answer I just did:

$1/2(1) -3 \leq -1\\1/2 -3\leq -1\\-2.5\leq -1$

And since -2.5 is less than -1 this statement is true. x does in fact equal 1

Peter takes an 8-inch by 3-inch sheet of paper and cuts from one corner of the paper to the diagonally opposite corner. now pete

tekilochka [14]

First get the length of the side the was cut (Hypotenuse).

We can use Pythagorean theorem: a^2+b^2 = c^2
a = 8, b = 3 = 1.5, c = ?

plug into forumla
8^2 + 3^2 = 73

a=8,
b=1.5,
c = sqrt( 73) or 8.5

Now add all sides together to get perimeter...
8+3+8.5 = 19.5

The perimeter of each sheet is 19.5in.
