Answer:
The end result is -1/(x + 1)
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find the answer to this, we first need to factor the denominator. Since it is a quadratic, we try to find number that multiply to the last term (8) and add to the middle term (9). In this case, the numbers 8 and 1 would work. This allows us to use those numbers in parenthesis along with x as a fully factored form.
x^2 + 9x + 8 = (x + 1)(x + 8)
Now that we have this factored we can take the original equation and factor a -1 out of the top.
(-1)(x + 8)/(x + 1)(x + 8)
Since there is an (x + 8) on the top and bottom, we can cancel those.
-1/(x + 1)
[] Similar
-> The triangles are similar because they were "mirrored" by the...
[] SSS
-> ... by the SSS similarity theorem, the sides are...
[] Proportional
-> ... the sides are proportional.
[] AB/AC
-> Since the sides are proportional, dividing corresponding sides will leave us with the same number
[] For the last two I think I am missing some information as I do not have any numbers and know where they got 85 from.
Have a nice day!

Answer:
200
Step-by-step explanation:
200×4%=8
8×3=24
The original amount is $200
Divide 1414 by 55 and you get 25.7 but you can't take .7 collections so the correct answer is 25 collections of 55 books
