Notice that x+4 is one of the denominators, and that x(x+4) is the LCD.
x
Thus, mult. ------- by x(x+4), obtaining x^2.
x+4
Next, mult. [ 1/x + 1/(x+4) by x(x+4), obtaining x+4 + x = 2x+4 or 2(x+4)
x^2
Then the simplified fraction becomes ----------
2(x+4)
Generally Brainly allows you to post only 1 or 2 questions at a time. I will do #15 as a courtesy to you, but want you to try #16 yourself (or to post it separately).
-4, 2, 8, 14, ... is an arithm. seq. Every new term is equal to the previous term, plus 6: -4+6 = 2; 2+6=8, and so on. Thus: first term is a = -4; common difference is d = 6
a(50) = a(1) + (50-1)(6), or a(50) = -4 + (49)(6) = 290 (answer)
Factor 11 x^2 y^2 out of both the numerator and the denominator to get 2(11 x^2 y^2)/11x^2 y^2, which is clearly equal to 2.
Answer:
x = -7
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
5x + 130 = 8x + 151
Reorder the terms:
130 + 5x = 8x + 151
Reorder the terms:
130 + 5x = 151 + 8x
Solving
130 + 5x = 151 + 8x
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-8x' to each side of the equation.
130 + 5x + -8x = 151 + 8x + -8x
Combine like terms: 5x + -8x = -3x
130 + -3x = 151 + 8x + -8x
Combine like terms: 8x + -8x = 0
130 + -3x = 151 + 0
130 + -3x = 151
Add '-130' to each side of the equation.
130 + -130 + -3x = 151 + -130
Combine like terms: 130 + -130 = 0
0 + -3x = 151 + -130
-3x = 151 + -130
Combine like terms: 151 + -130 = 21
-3x = 21
Divide each side by '-3'.
x = -7
