You have to find the LCD or least common denominator.
In this case the LCD would be (x-6)(x+5).
Problem: x/ x-6 - 1/x+5
Step 1: multiply x-6 to the numerator and denominator of 1/x+5
1(x-6)/ (x+5)(x-6)
Step 2: multiply x+5 to the numerator and denominator of x/x-6
x(x+5)/ (x+5)(x-6)
After all that, this is how the problem should look now
x(x+5)/ (x-6)(x+5) - 1(x-6)/ (x-6)(x+5)
If you simplify this you get
x²+5x-x+6/ (x-6)(x+5)
If you subtract both 5x-x (like terms) you get
x²+4x+6/ (x-6)(x+5)
which is the answer
Answer:
Not really 100% sure how to answer this, but if you would like to find the price of any item 10% off, you would just multiply the price by 0.9
EX: item cost $100
$100 x 0.9 = $90
Meaning the price of the item after the discount is applied would be $90

Answer:
D) 1/25
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for slope is
m = (the change in y)/(the change in x)
Y is always the vertical change, x is always the horizontal change.
For this problem, the road rises 4 feet (y) for every 100 feet of length (x), so the slope is..
m = 4/100
m = 1/25
The value 2 / 7 is greater than 4 / 12 is - 1 / 21
<h3>How to perform subtraction in algebra?</h3>
To know the value 2/7 is greater by 4 / 12, we have to subtract 4 / 12 from 2 / 7 .
Therefore,
2 / 7 - 4 / 12 = 24 - 28/84
Therefore,
24 - 28/84 = - 4/ 84 = - 1 / 21
Therefore, it is greater by - 1 / 21
