Onen way, is to know that
if a=b and c=d, then a/c=b/d, and thn (a/c)(d/b)=1

the real way would be to make denomenators the same

one way would be to firs assume they are equal then show it is false
1/2=2/5
times right sides by 5/5 and left by 2/2
5/10=4/10
times 10 both sides
5=4
flase

it is not equal

If you were to make the denominators equivalent, you'd see they aren't equivalent.

1/2=5/10

2/5=4/10

...Hope that helps

How to solve this (b) ???​
vladimir1956 [14]

(b). → Simplify: [{5^(x-+1) + 5^x}/{6×5^x}]

= [{5^(x+1+x)}/{6×5^x}]

= [{5^(2x+1)}/{6×5^x}]

= [{5^(2x+1)}/{6×5^x}]

= [{5^(2x+1-x)}/6]

= [{5^(x+1)}/6]Ans.

(c). 4a³b²

= 4(3)³(-2)²

Since, a = 3 and b = -2.

so,

= 4(3*3*3)(-2*-2)

= 4(27)(4)

= 108(4)

= 432Ans.
