<h2>Answer:  9/(x - 1)</h2>

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

Because both terms have the same denominator, then we can subtract the numerators upon the same denominator:

⇒ x+1/x-1 - x-8/x-1 = ((x + 1) - (x - 8))/(x - 1)

                             = (x + 1 - x + 8)/(x - 1)     <em>[expand the brackets and simplify]</em>

                             = 9/(x - 1)

Rewrite, using the distributive<br> property.<br> 5(2x – 3y) = [?]* - [ ]y
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

10x-15y

Step-by-step explanation:

So, when they say use the distrubutive property, they basically mean turning this:

a(b+c)

Into this:

ab+ac

So in this case, it would be:

5(2x-3y)

And we will turn it into:

10x-15y

ANother way to think about it is we are multiplying 2x by 5, and -3y by 5. So:

2x*5

=

10x

And

-3y*5

=

-15y

Then we can combine these two:

10x-15y

Hope this helps!

A washer and a dryer cost $1029 combined. The washer costs $79 more than the dryer. What is the cost of the dryer?
Darina [25.2K]
X = dryer
(X+79) = washer
X + (X+79) = $1029
Therefore, x+x+79= 1029 or 2x+79=1029
Solve for x

2x = 1029-79
2x = 950

2x/2 = 950/2

X= $475 The price of the dryer is $475
