Which expression is equivalent to the following complex fraction? X+5/x+2-x+1/x^2+2x
1 answer:
Answer:
Final answer will be the choice which matches best with expression
or
Step-by-step explanation:
Given expression is:
We begin by factoring denominators:
Multiply and divide first term by (x) to make denominators equal.
Since denominators are equal so we can combine numerators.
Now simplify
Hence final answer will be the choice which matches best with expression

Yes, we can obtain a diagonal matrix by multiplying two non diagonal matrix.
Consider the matrix multiplication below
![\left[\begin{array}{cc}a&b\\c&d\end{array}\right] \left[\begin{array}{cc}e&f\\g&h\end{array}\right] = \left[\begin{array}{cc}a e+b g&a f+b h\\c e+d g&c f+d h\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20%20%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcc%7Da%26b%5C%5Cc%26d%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%20%20%20%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcc%7De%26f%5C%5Cg%26h%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%20%3D%20%20%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcc%7Da%20e%2Bb%20g%26a%20f%2Bb%20h%5C%5Cc%20e%2Bd%20g%26c%20f%2Bd%20h%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%20)
For the product to be a diagonal matrix,
a f + b h = 0 ⇒ a f = -b h
and c e + d g = 0 ⇒ c e = -d g
Consider the following sets of values
The the matrix product becomes:
![\left[\begin{array}{cc}1&2\\3&4\end{array}\right] \left[\begin{array}{cc}\frac{1}{3}&-1\\-\frac{1}{4}&\frac{1}{2}\end{array}\right] = \left[\begin{array}{cc}\frac{1}{3}-\frac{1}{2}&-1+1\\1-1&-3+2\end{array}\right]= \left[\begin{array}{cc}-\frac{1}{6}&0\\0&-1\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcc%7D1%262%5C%5C3%264%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%20%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcc%7D%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B3%7D%26-1%5C%5C-%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B4%7D%26%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%20%3D%20%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcc%7D%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B3%7D-%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%26-1%2B1%5C%5C1-1%26-3%2B2%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%3D%20%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcc%7D-%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B6%7D%260%5C%5C0%26-1%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
Thus, as can be seen we can obtain a diagonal matrix that is a product of non diagonal matrices.
