The extraneous solution of startroot 4 x 41 endroot = x 5 will be A. -8.
<h3>What is an extraneous solution?</h3>
It should be noted that an extraneous solution simply means a root of a transformed equation which isn't part of the original equation.
✓4x + 41 = x + 5
Square both sides
4x + 41 = x² + 10x + 25
x² + 6x - 16
x(x + 8) - 2(x + 8) = 0
x + 8 = 0
x= 0 + 8 = 8

Answer:
3/8 + 1/4 is 5/8 and 1/10+4/5 is 1
Step-by-step explanation:
convert 1/4 to 2/8 and add to 3/8 to get 5/8
convert 4/5 to 9/10 and add to 1/10 equals 10/10 which is also 1
Answer:
y= x-4
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have a point, and the slope, we can use the point slope formula

m is the slope, y1 is the y coordinate of the point and x1 is the x coordinate of the point.
We know that m is 1, y1 is 1, and x1 is 5, so we can substitute them in
y-1=1(x-5)
Solve for y by isolating it
Distribute the 1
y-1=1*x+ 1*-5
y-1=x-5
Add 1 to both sides
y=x-4
The correct question is
<span>A student ate 3/20 of all candies and another 1.2 lb. Another student ate 3/5 of the candies and the remaining 0.3 lb. Altogether, what weight of candies did they eat?</span>
let
x-------> total <span>weight of candies
we know that
x=(3/20)*x+1.2+(3/5)*x+0.3
</span>x=(3/20)*x+(3/5)*x+1.5----> multiply by 20----> 20x=3x+12x+30
20x=15x+30
20x-15x=30
5x=30
x=6 lb
the answer is
6 lb
