The answer is the third choic, or the line with the same slope.
<h3>
Answer: 8/15</h3>
Work Shown:
x = (1/3) divided by (5/8)
x = (1/3) * (8/5)
x = (1*8)/(3*5)
x = 8/15
I'd suggest you begin by subtracting 4 / (x-4) from both sides. Doing that would leave you with 1 / (x-4) - 2 / (x+2) = 0.
LCD is (x-4)(x+2). Mult. all three terms by (x-4)(x+2). The resulting equation is
x+2 - 2(x-4) = 0. Then x+2 = 2x - 8 => x = 10
Subst. 10 for x in the original equation to verify that 10 is indeed a solution.
Answer:
the third option is the correct
