Simplify The Rational Expression X^2-4/x^2+5x+6. State Any Restrictions On The Variable.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is option B.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given rational expression is:

[tex]\frac{x^2-4}{x^2+5x+6}[/tex]

Factor the numerator and the denominator:

[tex]\frac{x^2-2^2}{x^2+2x+3x+6}[/tex]

Factor the numerator using difference of two squares and the denominator using factorization by grouping.

[tex]\frac{(x-2)}{x(x+2)+3(x+2)}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{(x-2)(x+2)}{(x+2)(x+3)}[/tex]

This function is defined if and only if the denominator is not zero.

That is: (x+3)(x+2)≠0.

x≠-2,x≠-3

We simplify now to obtain:

[tex]\frac{x-2}{x+3}[/tex]

The correct choice is the second option.

Answer 2

Option B is correct.

I just took the semester review.

If line S and line T are parallel lines cut by transversal line R, what is the value of X?

A. X = 12
B. X = 18
C. X cannot be determined from the information given.
D. X = 33

Answers

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

120+4x-12=180, 4x+108=180,4x=72, x=18

4x-12=120

4x-12+12= 120+12

4x= 132

divide by 4 for 4x and 132

4x/4= 132/4

x= 33

check answer by using substitution method

4x-12=120

4(33)-12= 120

132-12= 120

120= 120

Answer is x= 33 (D.)

If the average salary of one of the groups was $53,000, which Of these is least likely to be the average salary of another of the groups? A- $54,000 B- $53,000 C- $55,000 D- $41,000

Answers

Answer:$41,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

least likely option comes out to be option D.

Step-by-step explanation:

correct answer is option D.

As in the question it is given that the average salary of one group is  $53,000.

and,

it is also stated that the  sampling variability is very low which means the deviation from the mean will be very low .

when look at the options all the option A , B , C  are very much closer to $53,000 and the only option left is $41,000 which is very much deviated

hence,the least likely option comes out to be option D.

What is the value of x, when 3x^2=18 3/4?

Multiple choice is up above. I promise to mark brainlest!!

Answers

Answer:

Option B is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to solve the equation 3x^2 = 18 3/4 to find the value of x

3x^2 = 18 3/4

Converting mixed fraction into fraction form

3x^2 = 75/4

Dividing both sides by 3

3x^2/3 = 75/4*3

x^2 = 75/12 (dividing numerator and denominator by 3 which is common factor)

x^2 = 25/4

Taking square root on both sides to find value of x

√x^2 = √25/4

x = ± 5/2

x = ± 2 1/2

So, Option B is correct.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² + 5x - 14

Consider the factors of the constant term (- 14) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (+ 5)

The factors are + 7 and - 2, since

7 × - 2 = - 14 and 7 - 2 = + 5, hence

x² + 5x - 14 = (x + 7)(x - 2)

What is the value of b in this diagam?

Answers

Answer:

b = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given  : A triangle with side a= 12 , b = 6.33 and angles.

To find : What is the value of b in this diagam.

Solution : We have given that side a= 12 , b = 6.33

Angle A = 113.17

Angle B = 37.81 .

By the sin law: [tex]\frac{b}{sin B} =\frac{a}{sin A}[/tex].

[tex]\frac{b}{sin( 37.81)} =\frac{12}{sin( 113.17)}[/tex].

[tex]\frac{b}{0.613} =\frac{12}{0.919}[/tex].

On cross multiplication

b * 0.919 = 12 * 0.613 .

b * 0.919 = 7 .356

On dividing by 0.919

b = 8.004

Therefore, b = 8.

Answers

Answer:

I hope my answer has come to your helpanswerStep-by-step explanation:

The area of the given figure is Option(C) 144.5 square centimeter.

What is the area of the given figure in the diagram ?

In the diagram given aside, two shapes are mentioned one is a rectangle and other is a right-angled triangle.

The area of the rectangle is given by -  length*breadth

The area of the right-angled triangle is given by -  1/2*base*height

In the given figure, length = 13cm , breadth = 9cm , base = 11cm and height = 5cm

⇒ Total area = length*breadth + 1/2*base*height

⇒ Total area = 13*9 + 1/2*11*5 square centimeter

⇒ Total area = 117 + 27.5 square centimeter

∴  Total area = 144.5 square centimeter

Therefore, the area of the given figure is Option(C) 144.5 square centimeter.

The equation of the line is y = .

The total cost of producing 50 engines is .
option 1
0.2x+2
0.25x+2
0.4x+2
1.2x+2

option 2
$12,250
$14,750
$14,500
$15,000

Answers

Answer:

1) Second option:  [tex]y=0.25x+2[/tex]

2) Third option: $14,500

Step-by-step explanation:

1) The equation of the line in Slope-intercept form is:

[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]

Where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

You know the point (20,7) of the line and you can observe in the graph that the y-intercept is:

[tex]b=2[/tex]

Then, you can substitute these values into the equation  [tex]y=mx+b[/tex]

and solve for the slope "m":

[tex]7=m(20)+2\\\\7-2=20m\\\\m=\frac{5}{20}\\\\m=0.25[/tex]

Therefore, the equation of this line is:

[tex]y=0.25x+2[/tex]

2) To calculate the total cost of producing 50 engines, you need to substitute [tex]x=50[/tex] into the equation of the line  [tex]y=0.25x+2[/tex]. Then you get:

 [tex]y=0.25(50)+2[/tex]

 [tex]y=0.25x+2[/tex]

 [tex]y=14.5[/tex]

Since the y-axis represents the total cost "y" in thousands of dollar, then the total cost of producing 50 engines is:

$14,500

Andrew wrote the number 186425,on the board in which number is the value of the digit 6 exactly 10 times of the value digit 6 in the number Andrew wrote?

A. 681,452
B. 462,017
C. 246,412
D. 125,655

Answers

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The digit 6 in Andrew's number is worth 10 times less than the digit six in the other number. This means that the six will be shifted over one place to the left. The only number with a 6 in that position is B, 462,017.

It's B that's correct.

In 186425, the 6 is 6 thousands or 6000

Twice that amount has to be a digit in the ten thousands place.

When you check the choices, you'll see that the number 462, 017 is exactly 10 times of the value digit 6 of Andrew's number
