Factor 15x^2-24x+9
we know that we are supposed to divide by (3x-3) so that might be one of the factors
(3x-3)(ax+y)
a must be 5 since 5 times 3=15
(3x-3)(5x+y)
y must be -3 because -3 times -3=9 so
(3x-3)(5x-3)
try to multiply and get
15x^2-15x-9x+9=15x^2-24x+9
true

now we have
[(3x-3)(5x-3)]/(3x-3)=(3x-3)/(3x-3) times (5x-3)/1=1 times 5x-3
answer is 5x-3

\frac{15x^{2} - 24x + 9}{3x - 3} = \frac{3(5x^{2}) - 3(8x) + 3(3)}{3(x) - 3(1)} = \frac{3(5x^{2} - 8x + 3)}{3(x - 1)} = \frac{5x^{2} - 5x - 3x + 3}{x - 1} = \frac{5x(x) - 5x(1) - 3(x) - 3(-3)}{x - 1} = \frac{5x(x - 1) - 3(x - 1)}{x - 1} = \frac{(5x - 3)(x - 1)}{x - 1} = 5x - 3

Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

55/4

Explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

4 /5x−8=3

Step 1: Add 8 to both sides.

4 /5x−8+8=3+8

4 /5 x = 11

Step 2: Multiply both sides by 5/4.

( 5 /4 )*( 4 /5 x)=( 5 /4 )*(11)

x=  55/4

Answer:

x=

55 /4

Hope that helps :)

Select the correct answer. Which of the following is a solution to 4sin2x − 1 = 0? A. 30° B. 60° C. 90° D. 120°
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

The correct option is A.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct form is:

4sin^2 x − 1 = 0

First step is add 1 to both sides:

4sin^2 x-1+1=0+1

4sin^2 x=1

Now to eliminate 4 divide both sides by 4

4sin^2 x/4=1/4

sin^2 x=1/4

Take square root at both sides

√sin^2 x = √1/4

sinx = 1/2

Thus the correct option is 30° ....
