Answer:

≈33.3%

Step-by-step explanation:

First we find the difference of the heights to see what the growth was

24-18 = 6

Then we find what percent 6 is of 18 to see what percentage growth occured

6/18 ≈33.3%

With some simple rearrangement, we can rewrite the numerator as

$2x^3 - 3x^2 - x + 4 = 2(x^3 - x) - 3x^2 + x + 4 \\\\ ~~~~~~~~ = 2x(x^2-1) - 3(x^2 - 1) + x + 1 \\\\ ~~~~~~~~ = (2x-3)(x^2-1) + x+1$

Then factorizing the difference of squares, $x^2-1=(x-1)(x+1)$ , we end up with

$\dfrac{2x^3 - 3x^2 - x + 4}{x^2 - 1} = \dfrac{(2x-3)(x-1)(x+1) + x+1}{(x-1)(x+1)} \\\\ ~~~~~~~~ = \boxed{2x-3 + \dfrac1{x-1}}$

xeze [42]

Answer:

D. $x-\frac{5}{2}y = \frac{25}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$y = \frac{2}{5}x - 5$

Required

Determine its equivalent

From the list of given options, the correct answer is

$x - \frac{5}{2}y = \frac{25}{2}$

This is shown as follows;

$y = \frac{2}{5}x - 5$

Multiply both sides by $\frac{5}{2}$

$\frac{5}{2} * y = \frac{5}{2} * (\frac{2}{5}x - 5)$

Open Bracket

$\frac{5}{2} * y = \frac{5}{2} * \frac{2}{5}x - \frac{5}{2} *5$

$\frac{5}{2}y = x - \frac{25}{2}$

Subtract x from both sides

$\frac{5}{2}y - x = x -x - \frac{25}{2}$

$\frac{5}{2}y - x = - \frac{25}{2}$

Multiply both sides by -1

$-1 * \frac{5}{2}y - x * -1 = - \frac{25}{2} * -1$

$-\frac{5}{2}y + x = \frac{25}{2}$

Reorder

$x-\frac{5}{2}y = \frac{25}{2}$

Hence, the correct option is D

$x-\frac{5}{2}y = \frac{25}{2}$
