Hi there

a/(a² - 36) + 2/(a-6) = 1/(a+6)
a/(a+6)(a-6) + 2/(a-6) = 1/(a+6)
Now we need to multiply the terms by (a+6)(a-6)
a + 2(a+6) = 1(a-6)
a + 2a + 12 = a - 6
3a + 12 = a - 6
3a - a = -6 - 12
2a = -18
Divide both sides by 2
2a/2 = -18/2
a = -9
Thus, The correct option is A

I hope that's help !

Good luck !

Mr. Carlevato and Mr. Burrows get into a debate about two different expressions. · Mr. Carlevato says "2(2x + 3) is equal to 4x

ruslelena [56]

Answer:

Yes, the same answer is obtained.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to Mr. Carlevato, $2(2x+3)$ is equal to $4x+6$ . However, $2(2x+3)$ is not equal to $4x+6$ according to Mr. Burrows.

Put $x=5$ in $2(2x+3)$

$2[2(5)+3]=2(10+3)=2(13)=26$

Put $x=5$ in $4x+6$

$4x+6=4(5)+6=20+6=26$

Therefore,

$2(2x+3)=4x+6$

Yes, the same answer is obtained.

If Q(x) = x2 + 3x + 2, find Q(-4).

lord [1]

Q(x)=x^2+3x+2

$\\ \sf\longmapsto Q(-4)$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto (-4)^2+3(-4)+2$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 16+(-12)+2$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 16-12+2$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 4+2$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 6$
