Answer:

\frac{x^2+19x-56}{4x^2-32x}

Step-by-step explanation:

To add two fractions we need a common denominator. Just by looking at the two, there are no common factors. This means the denominator would be the product of the two: 4x(x-8). In order to obtain this, we multiply the first fraction by (x-8)/(x-8) - 1, and the second by 4x/4x - 1:

\frac{x+7}{4x} *\frac{x-8}{x-8} +\frac{5}{x-8}*\frac{4x}{4x}

We can use the distributive property to simplify:

\frac{x^2-x-56}{4x(x-8)} +\frac{20x}{4x(x-8)}

The sum of the two is:

\frac{x^2+19x-56}{4x^2-32x}

The vertices of a triangle are located at P(0, 0), 0(4,3), and R(4,0).

Answer:

  12

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of the hypotenuse, PQ, can be found from the Pythagorean theorem:

  PQ² = QR² +PR²

  PQ² = 3² + 4² = 25

  PQ = √25 = 5

The perimeter is the sum of side lengths:

  P = 3 + 4 + 5 = 12

The perimeter of this triangle is 12 units.
