Answer:

She is not correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Misha found that the equation - |2x-10|-1=2  had two possible solution x=3.5 and x =-6.5.

To find : Explains whether or not her solutions are correct.

Solution :

The first thing we solve the equation to get solution,

- |2x-10|-1=2

Add 1 on both side of equation :

 - |2x-10|-1+1=2+1

 - |2x-10|=3

Multiply both sides of the equation by -1:

 - |2x-10|(-1)=3(-1)

 |2x-10|=-3

We observe that the result of the expression in absolute value is -3.

The result of an absolute value function is always greater than or equal to zero.

Which implies , the equation has no solution.

Therefore, Misha solutions were incorrect.

<span>-|2x-10|-1=2 has NO solutions, because the absolute value function is never negative.  Can be 0, can be positive, but can NOT be negative.

Simplify
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{x-1}{x^2-3x+2}+ \frac{x-2}{x^2-5x+6} +\frac{x-5}{x^2-8x+15}

we need to simplify that

x^2-3x+2=(x-1)(x-2)\\\\x^2-5x+6=(x-2)(x-3)\\\\x^2-8x+15=(x-3)(x-5)

so we can continue

\frac{x-1}{(x-1)(x-2)}=\frac{1}{x-2}\\\\\frac{x-2}{(x-2)(x-3)} =\frac{1}{x-3}\\\\\frac{x-5}{(x-3)(x-5)} =\frac{1}{x-3}

and we can put all together

\frac{1}{x-2}+ \frac{1}{x-3}+ \frac{1}{x-3}\\\\\frac{1}{x-2} +\frac{2}{x-3}\\\\\frac{x-3}{(x-3)(x-2)}+ \frac{2(x-2)}{(x-2)(x-3)} \\\\\frac{x-3+2x-4}{(x-3)(x-2)}\\\\\frac{3x-7}{x^2-5x+6}
