1 answer:

6 0

You must get x by itself on one side of the equal sign therefore start by subtracting 20 from both sides of the equation the divide .5 from both sides of the equation.

20 + .5x - 20 = 37 -20
.5x = 17
.5x/.5 = 17/.5
x = 34

anastassius [24]

Rational expressions are those that have fractional terms. We state restrictions because it may cause the equation to be undefined in some values of x. The most common restriction for rational expressions is N/0. This means any number divided by zero is undefined.

<h3>What is rational expressions and examples?</h3>

A rational expression is nothing more than a fraction in which the numerator and/or the denominator are polynomials. Here are some examples of rational expressions.

To find the restrictions on a rational function, find the values of the variable that make the denominator equal 0.
