Answer:
5x^2+22x-12 x cannot be -5, -4, -2
(x+5)(x+4)(x+2)
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to solve this, your denominator must be the same. Let's start by writing out the two different quadratic formulas:
x^2 + 6x + 8 <-- This should factor out to (x+4)(x+2)
x^2 + 7x + 10 <-- This should factor out to (x+5)(x+2)
Now that you have factored out the two quadratics, plug them into the equation.
5x - 3
(x+4)(x+2) (x+5)(x+2)
Now as we know, -2 cannot be x because it will turn the entire equation undefined. Multiple top and bottom with (x+5) on the right side and (x+4) on the left side.
5x (x+5) - 3(x+4)
(x+5)(x+4)(x+2) (x+5)(x+4)(x+2)
Focus on the top. 5x(x+5) will turn out to be 5x^2+25x. 3(x+4) will turn out to be 3x+12. Combine the two equations because now they are equal to each other and do the subtraction:
5x^2+25x - (3x+12) = 5x^2+22x-12 x cannot be -5, -4, -2
(x+5)(x+4)(x+2) (x+5)(x+4)(x+2)
Slope -2/3
Y Intercept 2
Slope1
Y Intercept 2
You would add the 2 fractions. Since 2/16 equals 1/8 you could add 1/8 plus 4/8. That will give you 5/8. After all that you subtract 5/8 from 8/8, which will give you 3/8.
