Which expression is equivalent to the following complex fraction?

Mathematics
1 answer:
iVinArrow [24]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Option B

Step-by-step explanation:

Numerator:

\dfrac{3}{x -1 }-4 =\dfrac{3}{x-1}-\dfrac{4*(x-1)}{x-1}\\\\

                 =\dfrac{3- 4x -4*(-1)}{x-1}=\dfrac{3-4x+4}{x-1}\\\\\\=\dfrac{-4x+7}{x-1} \:  \textbf{ [Combine like terms]}

Denominator:

2-\dfrac{2}{x-1}=\dfrac{2*(x-1)}{x-1}-\dfrac{2}{x-1}\\

                = \bf \dfrac{2x-2-2}{x-1}\\\\\\= \dfrac{2x-4}{x-1}\\\\= \dfrac{2*(x- 2)}{x-1}

\dfrac{\dfrac{3}{x-1}-4}{2-\dfrac{2}{x-1}}=\dfrac{\dfrac{-4x+7}{x-1}}{\dfrac{2*(x-2)}{x-1}}

                 \bf = \dfrac{-4x+7}{x-1}*\dfrac{x-1}{2(x-2)} \ \ \  \textbf{ [(x-1) in the numerator and denominator will be cancelled]}\\\\\\=\dfrac{-4x+7}{2(x-2)}

Answer:

  a.  plane DEA

Step-by-step explanation:

A plane can be named by naming any 3 non-collinear points in the plane, or by using the plane's name as indicated in the drawing.

Here, points in the plane are A, D, E, F, with DEF all on  the same line. So A plus any two points from the line will constitute a name for the plane. Also, this plane is identified with a script M that can be used to name the plane.

M is not an answer choice, but DEA is. So, the appropriate choice is ...

  plane DEA

__

F is a point, not a plane name. C is not on the plane, so cannot be used to name it. 'k' is a line name, not a plane name.

What is the smallest perimeter possible for a rectangle whose area is 16 in2, and what
siniylev [52]
A = 4,


we denote one side of the rectangle with
a
, and the other with
b
we can write, that:
a
⋅
b
=
16

so we can write, that
b
=
16
a
Now we can write perimeter
P
as a function of
a
P
=
2
⋅
(
a
+
16
a
)
We are looking for the smallest perimeter, so we have to calculate derivative:
P

(

The extreme values can only be found in points where

P

(

=

⇔

Since, length is a scalar quantity, therefore, it cannot be negative,

What is the value of y?
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

y = 126.43

Step-by-step explanation:

Essentially what you have is the Cosine(50)

Cos(50) = adjacent / hypotenuse

adjacent = 122

hypotenuse = ?? = y

Solve

Cos(50) = 122/y         Multiply both sides by y

y*cos(50) = 122         Divide by cos(50)

y = 122 / cos(50)       Find the value of cos(50)

y = 122 / 0.96497     Divide

y = 126.43
