Will help you prepare for the material covered in the next section. a. If \(y=\frac{k}{x},\) find the value of \(k\) using \(x=8\) and \(y=12\) b. Substitute the value for \(k\) into \(y=\frac{k}{x}\) and write the resulting equation. c. Use the equation from part (b) to find \(y\) when \(x=3\)
One pipe can fill a swimming pool in 2 hours, a second can fill the pool in 3 hours, and a third pipe can fill the pool in 4 hours. How many minutes, to the nearest minute, would it take to fill the pool with all three pipes operating?
The temperature, in degrees Fahrenheit, of a dessert placed in a freezer for \(t\) hours is modeled by $$ \frac{t+30}{t^{2}+4 t+1}-\frac{t-50}{t^{2}+4 t+1} $$ a. Express the temperature as a single rational expression. b. Use your rational expression from part (a) to find the temperature of the dessert, to the nearest hundredth of a degree, after 1 hour and after 2 hours.
denominators are opposites, or additive inverses. Add or subtract as indicated. Simplify the result, if possible. $$\frac{5 x-2}{3 x-4}+\frac{2 x-3}{4-3 x}$$
denominators are opposites, or additive inverses. Add or subtract as indicated. Simplify the result, if possible. $$\frac{2 x}{x^{2}-y^{2}}+\frac{2 y}{y^{2}-x^{2}}$$
