<u><em>The correct answer is: </em></u>C) his solution for x is correct, but in order for 6 to be an extraneous solution, one denominator has to result in 0 when 6 is substituted for x.
<u><em>Explanation: </em></u><span><u>To solve this rational equation, we cross multiply: </u>
8*(x-4)=2*(x+2).
<u>Using the distributive property, we have </u>
8*x-8*4=2*x+2*2;
8x-32=2x+4.
<u>Subtract 2x from each side: </u>
8x-32-2x=2x+4-2x;
6x-32=4.
<u>Add 32 to each side: </u>
6x-32+32=4+32;
6x=36.
<u>Divide both sides by 6:</u>

x=6.
<u>Extraneous solutions</u> are solutions that come about in the problem but are not valid solutions to the problem; the only values of x that would give this sort of answer are -2 and 4, since these are the two values that would make one of the denominators 0 (we cannot divide by 0).</span></span>
Answer:
The fraction of the day Rehee spent pulling weeds = 1/16
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us take the fraction representing a whole day to be a whole number - 1
Renee spent 1/8 of the day landscaping around the house.
This means she spent 1/8 X 1 landscaping around the house = 1/8
She spent half of the time pulling weeds.
This means she spent 1/2 of 1/8 of 1 landscaping around the house = 1/16
1/2 X 1/8 X 1 = 1/16
The fraction of the day Rehee spent pulling weeds = 1/16
