Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) 7x^2-5x+10x-8x=7x^2+5x-8x=7x^2-3x

2) -6a^3+5a^3+2a-a=-a^3+2a-a=-a^3+a

3) -4(x+5)-5(x-1)=-4x-20-5x+5=-9x-20+5=-9x-15

4) -a+5b-6a+5(a+1)=-7a+5b+5a+5=-2a+5b+5

5) 18x^4-3x^3-2x^3+x^2-10+6

=18x^4-5x^3+x^2-4

Can I get some help on how to solve this?

Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Factorise both denominators

x² + 2x = x(x + 2) ← common factor of x

x² - 4 = (x - 2)(x + 2) ← difference of squares

Before subtracting we require common denominators

Multiply the numerator/denominator of the first fraction by (x - 2)

Multiply the numerator of the second fraction by x

= $\frac{5}{x(x-2)(x+2)}$ - $\frac{2x}{x(x-2)(x+2)}$

Distribute and simplify the numerator leaving the denominator

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

= $\frac{3x-10}{x(x-2)(x+2)}$
