It's not entirely clear to me what you're trying to solve, but it looks like the initial equation is
[tex]\dfrac{a-2}{a+3} -1 = \dfrac3{a+2}[/tex]
First convert each term into a fraction with the same (i.e. the least common) denominator. The first term needs to be multiplied by a + 2; the second term by (a + 3) (a + 2); and the third term by a + 3 :
[tex]\dfrac{a-2}{a+3}\cdot\dfrac{a+2}{a+2} -1\cdot\dfrac{(a+3)(a+2)}{(a+3)(a+2)} = \dfrac3{a+2}\cdot\dfrac{a+3}{a+3} \\\\ \dfrac{(a-2)(a+2)}{(a+3)(a+2)} - \dfrac{(a+3)(a+2)}{(a+3)(a+2)} = \dfrac{3(a+3)}{(a+3)(a+2)}[/tex]
Now that everything has the same denominator, we can combine the fractions into one. Move every term to one side and join the numerators:
[tex]\dfrac{(a-2)(a+2)-(a+3)(a+2)-3(a+3)}{(a+3)(a+2)} = 0[/tex]
Simplify the numerator:
[tex]\dfrac{(a^2-4)-(a^2+5a+6)-(3a+9)}{(a+3)(a+2)} = 0 \\\\ \dfrac{-8a-19}{(a+3)(a+2)} = 0[/tex]
If neither a = -3 nor a = -2, we can ignore the denominator:
[tex]-8a-19 = 0[/tex]
Solve for a :
[tex]-8a = 19 \\\\ \boxed{a = -\dfrac{19}8}[/tex]
How many vertices can be connected in 351 ways?
Answer: A spanning tree
Step-by-step explanation:
Given lines are parallel, find the value of x.
Then determine the measure of the angle.
Answers:
x = 45angle measure = 104 degrees============================================================
Explanation:
These angles are on alternating sides of the transversal line, and they are exterior of the parallel lines. Therefore, these are alternate exterior angles.
Alternate exterior angles are congruent when we have parallel lines like this.
Set the two expressions equal to each other. Solve for x.
3x-31 = x+59
3x-x = 59+31
2x = 90
x = 90/2
x = 45
Then we can find that:
3x-31 = 3*45-31 = 135-31 = 104x+59 = 45+59 = 104Both alternate exterior angles are 104 degrees each, which confirms we have the correct x value.

What is the slope of the line in the xy plane that passes through the points {-5/2 ,1} and {-1/2, 4}?
Answer:
m=3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
the line: y=mx+b
This line passes through the points
-> These points (x,y) are on the line
(-5/2,1) : x=-5/2 y=1
1=-5/2m+b
(-1/2,4) : x=-1/2 y=4
4=-1/2m+b
We have a system of equation:
1=-5/2m+b
4=-1/2m+b
After solving this, we have m=3/2 b=19/4
-> The slope is 3/2

Answer:
4 n (2) + 10 n +4
Step-by-step explanation:
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplify the expression by opening parenthesis:
(4n + 5)² - 9 =(4n)² + 2*5*(4n) + 25 - 9 =4(4n²) + 4(10n) + 4(4) =4(4n² + 10n + 4)As we see the expression has 4 as one of factors so is divisible by 4.

Which equation is correct?
8 dot 8 equals 8 Superscript 2 equals 16.
9 dot 9 equals 2 left-parenthesis 9 right-parenthesis equals 18.
10 dot 10 equals 2 left-parenthesis 10 right-parenthesis equals 100.
11 dot 11 equals 11 Superscript 2 equals 121.
The equation that is correct is 11.11 = 11² = 121. The correct answer is the fourth option: 11 dot 11 equals 11 Superscript 2 equals 121 (11.11 = 11² = 121)
From the question,
We are to determine which of the options is correct.
To determine which of the options is correct, we will evaluate the options one after the other.
For the first option8 dot 8 equals 8 Superscript 2 equals 16
That is,
8.8 = 8² = 16
Evaluating properly
8.8 = 8² = 8 × 8 = 64
Then, 8.8 = 8² ≠ 16
∴ This is NOT correct
For the second option9 dot 9 equals 2 left-parenthesis 9 right-parenthesis equals 18
That is,
9.9 = 2(9) = 18
Evaluating properly
9.9 = 9 × 9 = 9² = 81
Then, 9.9 ≠ 2(9) = 18
∴ This is NOT correct
For the third option10 dot 10 equals 2 left-parenthesis 10 right-parenthesis equals 100
That is,
10.10 = 2(10) = 100
Evaluating properly
10.10 = 10 × 10 = 10² = 100
Then, 10.10 ≠ 2(10) ≠ 100
∴This is NOT correct
For the fourth option11 dot 11 equals 11 Superscript 2 equals 121
That is,
11.11 = 11² = 121
Evaluating properly
11.11 = 11² = 11 × 11 = 121
Then, 11.11 = 11² = 121
This is correct.
Hence, the equation that is correct is 11.11 = 11² = 121. The correct answer is the fourth option: 11 dot 11 equals 11 Superscript 2 equals 121 (11.11 = 11² = 121)

A field is a rectangle with a perimeter of 1200 feet. The length is 200 feet more than the width. Find the width and length of the rectangle field
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
let the width be w
p=l*w
1200= 200*w
1200= 200w
1200 = 200w
6 feet = w
width is 6 feet
let the length be a
p = l* w
1200 = a* 6
1200 = 6a
1200 = 6a
200 feet = a
length is 200 feet

We use the nCr combination formula because order doesn't matter.
The number of ways Kyle’s choose eight to attend his birthday party is 43263.
What is a combination?Combinations are selections made by taking some or all of a number of objects, irrespective of their arrangements. The number of combinations of n different things taken r at a time, denoted by nCr and it is given by, ⁿCr=n!/r!(n−r)!,where 0 ≤ r ≤ n.
Given that, there are 24 student in Kyle’s kindergarten class.
He choose eight to attend his birthday party
Now, number of ways is
²⁴C₈= 24!/8!(24-8)!
= 24×23×22×21×20×19×18×17×16!/8! 16!
= 24×23×22×21×20×19×18×17/8×7×6×5×4×3×2×1
= 3×23×11×3×4×19×3×17/4×3
= 3×23×11×3×19
= 43263
Therefore, the number of ways Kyle’s choose eight to attend his birthday party is 43263.
