To simplify this fraction, multiply the entire fraction by the conjugate of the denominator. The conjugate of a square root and a number being added to it would be the number <em>subtracted </em>from the square root. In other words, the conjugate of
would be
.
Applying that information to our fraction shown here, the conjugate of the denominator would be
. We will multiply both the numerator and denominator of our original fraction by this expression to obtain our answer, as shown below.



Our answer is
.
Answer:
lesser x= (x-4)greater x=(-5x+1)
Answer:
- x - 24 = 0
a = 1
b = 1
c = -24
Step-by-step explanation:
(x + 4)(x - 5) = 4
x(x - 5) =
- 5x
4(x - 5) = 4x - 20
- 5x + 4x - 20 = 4
- x - 20 = 4
- x - 20 - 4 = 0
- x - 24 = 0
a = 1
b = 1
c = -24
