For which rational expression is –2 an excluded value of x?

a.(x-3)/x^2-4

b.(x-3)/x^2+4

c.(x-4)/x^2-3

d.(x+4)/x^2-3

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

option a is the answer

Step-by-step explanation:

put the value of x in each expression as x = -2

you'll see that in option a the expression becomes

[tex] \frac{x - 3}{ {x}^{2} - 4} = \frac{ - 2 - 3}{ {( - 2)}^{2} - 4} \\ = \frac{ - 5}{4 - 4} \\ = \frac{ - 5}{0} [/tex]

which is not defined. hence -2 is excluded value

Put the following equation of a line into slope-intercept form, simplifying all
fractions.
10x + 2y = -18

Answers

Answer:

y = -5x-9

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope intercept form is

y = mx+b  where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

10x + 2y = -18

Subtract 10x from each side

10x + 2y-10x =-10x -18

2y = -10x-18

Divide each side by 2

2y/2 = -10x/2 -18/2

y = -5x-9

What is the correct value for n in the equation 12.5% of n = 350?

Answers

Answer:

What is 12.5 percent of 350? = 43.75.

Answer:

The correct value for n is 2800.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the value of n.  According to the given information, 12.5% of n is 350.  Here the percentagle 12.5% must be converted to the equivalent 0.125.  

Then the equation to be solved is 0.125n = 350, so that

       350

n = --------- = 2800

      0.125

The correct value for n is 2800.

A scalene triangle has the lengths 6, 11, and 12. Keyla uses the law of cosines to find the measure of the largest angle. Complete her work and find the measure of angle Y to the nearest degree.

Answers

Answer:

The maximum angle is 84.3 degree.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sides of a triangle is

a = 6 , b = 11, c = 12

The maximum angle is opposite to c.

So,

[tex]a =6, b =11, c = 12 \\\\cos C =\frac{a^2+b^2-c^2}{2 ab}\\\\cos C =\frac{36+121-144}{2\times 6\times 11}\\\\cos C = \frac{13}{132}\\\\cos C = 0.0985\\\\C =84.3^o[/tex]

Introduce the variables and set up the system of equations: Rafael and Lucas go to the mall. The two of them buy a total of 15 t-shirts. Rafael gets 3 less than twice as many t-shirts than Lucas. How many t-shirts did each of them get?

Answers

Answer:

lucas = 9

rafael = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

two equations can be derived from the question

r + l = 15 equation 1

r = l - 3  equation 2

r = rafael

l = lucas

substitute for r in equation 1

l - 3 + l = 15

combine similar terms

l + l = 15 + 3

2l = 18

l = 9

substitute for l in equation 1

r + 9 = 15

r = 15 -  9

r = 6

Miguel and Jacqui built towers out of craft sticks.Miguel's tower had a 4-inch base.Jaquis tower had a 6-inch base.Miguels tower had a volume of 128 cubic inches and jaquis had a volume of 288.Who's tower was taller

Answers

Answer:

Height is same for both the towers

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation is as follows;

For 1st tower

The height is

= 128 ÷ 4^2

= 8 inches

And,  

For the 2nd tower

The height is

= 288 ÷ 6^2

= 8 inches

So as we can see that the height of the both the tower is same i.e. 8 inches so the same should be considered

What is the slope given the two points?

Answers

Answer:

-1

Step-by-step explanation:

(-3 , 12)  & (4, 5)

Slope = [tex]\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}\\[/tex]

          [tex]= \frac{5 - 12}{4-[-3]}\\\\= \frac{-7}{4+3}\\\\=\frac{-7}{7}\\\\= -1[/tex]

Answer: -1

Explanation:

Let, (-3,12) be (x1,y1) and (4,5) be (x2,y2)

We know that slope = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

So, slope of given two points = (5 - 12)/(4 - (-3))

= -7/(4+3)

= -7/7

= -1

Therefore, slope of given two points = -1

y = 875

Question 2 = 1425 likes

Find the area of the sector

Answers

Find the area of the full circle:

Area = pi x r^2

Area = 3.14 x 17^2

Area = 907.46 square units

A full circle is 360 degrees. The sector is 120degrees.

Multiply the area of the circle by the sector degrees/ full circle degrees

907.46 x 120/360 = 302.486 square units round off as needed.

The general structure goes like this:

Find the area of the entire circleUsing the angle, find out how much of the circle is covered by the sector.Multiply answer from Step 2 from the area to figure out the area of the sector.

Area of a circle is [tex]\pi r^{2}[/tex], so [tex]\pi[/tex]×17² = 289[tex]\pi[/tex] m²

The angle is 120° out of 360°, think of a sector as the percentage of the area of the circle.

Triangle ABC ~ Triangle DEF. Measure of angle A = 20
degrees and measure of angle F = 65 degrees. AB=10, DE = 15, EF= 12.
Find measure of angles B, E, D and C and the length of BC.

Answers

Answer:

B=95°

E=95°

D=20°

C=65°

BC=7cm

Step-by-step explanation:

the triangles look like they are identical, just different in size only. Since DE= 15 and AB=10 that may mean that they have a 5cm difference making side BC= 7cm since EF= 12 minus 5 equals 7cm. Now for the other angles, a triangle no matter what,if we put all their angles together equal 180°. We already know angle A= 20 so the same applies to angle D. We also know that angle F=65 degrees, that makes angle C the same. The only thing that's left are angles B and E that can be found by adding our other angles. So if A+C(20+65)=85 then 180-85=95 degrees is angle B and since the triangles are identical the same goes to E.
