Hey there! :D
 
Let's work it out. 

\frac{x}{x+6}

The x's cancel out, so it will just leave you with 6. 

6 
≠ 1/6

I hope this helps!

Answer: No, it does not.

x and x + 6 are both prime and cannot be factored.

There are no common factors to divide out.

x over x + 6 is already simplified.

If you substitute in a value for x, the fraction will not be equal to 1/6.

Solve l 3x-7 l = 2
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

1) Solutions are x = 3 and x = 5/3

2) Solution are x ≤ 13/2 and  x ≤ -3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Given absolute inequality,

|3x-7| = 2

⇒ 3x - 7 = ± 2

⇒ 3x = 7 ± 2

\implies x=\frac{7\pm 2}{3}

x=\frac{7+2}{3}\text{ or }x=\frac{7-2}{3}

\implies x = 3\text{ or }x=\frac{5}{3}

2) l 2x-5 l ≤ 8

⇒  2x-5  ≤ ±8

⇒   2x ≤ 5 ± 8

\implies x\leq \frac{5\pm 8}{2}

x\leq \frac{5+8}{2}\text{ or }x\leq \frac{5-8}{2}

\implies x \leq \frac{13}{2}\text{ or }x\leq-\frac{3}{2}
