Answer:
x = 1/2 or 2
Step-by-step explanation:
You can factor this as ...
2x^2 -4x -x +2 = 0 . . . rewrite the middle term to enable factoring
2x(x -2) -1(x -2) = 0 . . . . factor by grouping
(2x -1)(x -2) = 0 . . . . factor out (x -2)
x = 1/2, 2 . . . . . . values of x that make the factors zero
Answer:
(x + 3)(x - 1)(x + 2)
Step-by-step explanation:
The fractions are:
Factor each denominator
We must find the least common multiple of the denominators. We take the maximum power of each separate factor.
Factors of first fraction = (x + 3) × (x - 1)
Factors of second fraction = (x + 3) × (x + 2)
LCM = (x + 3)(x - 1)(x + 2)
The lowest common denominator of the two fractions is (x + 3)(x - 1) (x + 2).
