5÷x-4 - 2÷x+2 = 4÷x-4

Mathematics

I'd suggest you begin by subtracting 4 / (x-4) from both sides.  Doing that would leave you with    1 / (x-4)   -     2 / (x+2) =  0.

LCD is (x-4)(x+2).  Mult. all three terms by (x-4)(x+2).  The resulting equation is 

x+2 - 2(x-4) = 0.     Then x+2 = 2x - 8  =>  x = 10

Subst. 10 for x in the original equation to verify that 10 is indeed a solution.

To find a missing side of a right triangle use the Pythagorean theorem
A2+b2=c2
C is the hypotenuse (long side)
Plug into the equation
11^2+b2=12^2
121+b2=144
So subtract 144-121 to get the missing side you get 23
Take the square root
It will be 4.7
If they want it rounded
X=5
If I had any mistakes in my answer I am sorry but everything should be correct

What is the slope of the line that passes through the pair of points (-2.5,6.1) and (-2.5,3.1)
podryga [215]
(-2.5,6.1)(-2.5,3.1).....notice how ur x values are the same. This means that u have a vertical line which has an undefined slope.

IF ur y values would have been the same, u would have had a horizontal line which has a 0 slope.
