1. determine the defined range
2. write all numerators above the common denominator
3. remove parenthesis
4. collect like terms
5. multiply both sides by (2x+1) x (2x-1)
6. simplify the product
7. multiply parenthesis by -4
8. cancel equal terms
9. move constant to the right
10. add the numbers
11. divide both sides by 6
ANSWER: x = 11/6
5*4 is 20 because 5+5+5+5 is 20
Answer:
2.4 (2 2/5) pieces of pie per person.
Step-by-step explanation:
All that is needed to be done is simple division. Take your pieces of pie, (12) and divided it by the amount of people (5). This will give you 2.4. This can be turned into 24/10, and can be simplified twice. First to 12/5, then to 2 2/5.
Hope this helps!
