Factories both equations:
5(x - 4) / (x + 2)(x - 4)
Then take out the common brackets:
5 / x + 2
Minus 2 from both sides:
3 / x
If you are looking for the greatest common factor of the numerator and denominator, the answer would be (x - 4)
Answer:
7.43
Step-by-step explanation:
Solution:
Given:

The value of a car after t - years will depreciate.
Hence, the equation given represents the value after depreciation over t-years.
To get the rate, we compare the equation with the depreciation formula.

Hence,

Therefore, the value of this car is decreasing at a rate of 6%. The purchase price of the car was $16,300.
We find the length of AD using the similarity of right triangle property. See image attached.
AD² = BD × CD
AD² = 9 × 36
AD² = 324
AD² = 18²
AD = 18
The length of AD is 18 units
