Answer: check explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply both sides of equation by x(x+a)
This will get rid of those nasty fractions...cuz who likes them?
Anyways,
Now you should I think get
x(x+a)+a(ax)=a
I am pretty positive that you just distribute and solve.
You may have to factor and have to put everything as an equation set to equal=0
you try it and experiment. Sometimes you just have to try to think algebraically and creatively. Don’t get frustrated just work with it. Good luck!
