HELP PLEASE Simplify the rational expression. State any excluded values. x^2-12x+35/x^2-3x-10

1 answer:

5 0

$\frac{{x}^{2} - 12x + 35 }{ {x}^{2} - 3x - 10 }$
Factorise both the term by splitting the mid term and you'll get

$\frac{ {x}^{2} - 5x - 7x + 35}{ {x}^{2} - 5x + 2x - 10 } \\ = \frac{x(x - 5) - 7(x - 5)}{x(x - 5) + 2(x - 5)} \\ = \frac{(x - 7)(x - 5)}{(x + 2)(x - 5)} \\ = \frac{x - 7}{x + 2}$

Zx and Zy are supplementary angles. Zy measures 108°,

gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

72°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Zy = 108°

Zx = ?

We know

Zx + Zy = 180° {being supplementary angles }

Zx + 108° = 180°

Zx = 180° - 108°

Zx = 72°

Hope it will help :)

The length of the base of a triangle is twice it’s height. If the area of the triangle is 441 square kilometers, find the height

Sonja [21]

Answer:

21 kilometers

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the height be $x$ . Then, the length of the base is $2x$ . The formula for the area is of the triangle is given by base*height/2. Therefore, the area of the triangle is equal to $\frac{x \cdot 2x}{2} = x^2$ , which is in turn equal to 441. Since $x$ must be positive, then $21^2=441$ , meaning that the height is $21$ kilometers.

How do I find the median for 77,82,87,85,32,78?

alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The median is the middle value of the data arranged in ascending order. If there is no exact middle then the median is the average of the 2 values either side of the middle

Arrange the data in ascending order ( smallest to largest )

32, 77, 78, 82, 85, 87

There is no value exactly in the middle, use the average

median = $\frac{78+82}{2}$ = $\frac{160}{2}$ = 80
