Reduce the expression 184 by cancelling the common factors. Factor 2 2 out of 18 18 . Factor 2 2 out of 4 4 . Rewrite the expression.Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Well what two numbers multiply to get -8 and add to get -2?
Well, to get -8, we either have (-1,8),(-2,4),(-4,2),(-8,1)
8-1=7
-2+4=2
2-4=-2
1-8=-7
Thus it should be (-4,2),
This means we should get (X-4)(X+2)

Finish the question
Step-by-step explanation:
22.5/(x-6) + 22.5/(x+6) = 9
multiply by x-6
=> (x-6)22.5/(x-6) + (x-6)22.5/(x+6) = 9(x-6)
=> 22.5 + (x-6)22.5/(x+6) = 9(x-6)
multiply by x+6
=> (x+6)22.5 + (x+6)(x-6)22.5/(x+6) = 9(x-6)(x+6)
=> (x+6)22.5 + (x-6)22.5 = 9(x-6)(x+6)
distribute
=> 22.5x+6(22.5) + 22.5x - 6(22.5) = 9(x^2 - 36)
=> 45x = 9x^2 - 9(36)
=> 0 = 9x^2 - 45x - 9(36)
divide by 9
=> 0 = x^2 - 5x - 36
=> 0 = x^2 - 5x - 36
=> 0 = (x - 9)(x + 4)
x=9 and -4
I think it's 1/4 because -4/1
