How do you solve and simplify

DedPeter [7]

F(x) = 1/(x+2) & g(x) = x/(x-3)

(f(x) + g(x) = 1/(x+2) + x/(x-3). Reduce to same denominator:

1/(x+2) + x/(x-3) =(x-3) + x(x-3)/(x+2).(x-3) ==> (x²+3x-3)/(x+2).(x-3)

X + 4y = 16<br> -X + 3y = -2

jeyben [28]

Answer:

(8, 2 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

x + 4y = 16 → (1)

- x + 3y = - 2 → (2)

Adding the 2 equations term by term will eliminate the x- term

0 + 7y = 14

7y = 14 ( divide both sides by 7 )

y = 2

Substitute y = 2 into either of the 2 equations and solve for x

Substituting into (1)

x + 4(2) = 16

x + 8 = 16 ( subtract 8 from both sides )

x = 8

solution is (8, 2 )
