Question 8 of 10
2 points
what is the value of the rational expression below when xis equal to 3?
ов. 3

The value of the rational expression is 4..

Step-by-step explanation:

The rational expression is:

17+x/ x+2

Put the value x=3 for all x's in the numerator and denominator

=17+3/3+2

Now add both the terms:

=20/5

Now divide both numerator and denominator by 5:

=4

Thus the value of the rational expression is 4..

for finding the midpoint of any given 2 pair of points simply add the respective x coordinates with other x coordinate and the y coordinate with other y coordinate and divide them by 2

in your question it will be :

(3+1)/2 for the x coordinate of mid point i.e 2

[8+(-4)]/2 for the y coordinate of midpoint i.e 2

so coordinates of mid point of points (3,8) and (1,-4) will be (2,2)

answer: a and c are correct

step-by-step explanation:

the +5 is the vertical translation

the added negative symbol in front is the reflection over the y-axis
