Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

[ (x + 7) / 6 ] − [ (x + 5) / (x + 3) ]

First, we must find the common denominator.  In this case, that's 6 (x+3).  Multiply the first fraction by (x+3)/(x+3) and the second fraction by 6/6.

[ (x + 7)(x + 3) / (6 (x + 3)) ] − [ 6 (x + 5) / (6 (x + 3)) ]

Now distribute the numerators:

[ (x² + 10x + 21) / (6 (x + 3)) ] − [ (6x + 30) / (6 (x + 3)) ]

Now we combine the fractions:

((x² + 10x + 21) − (6x + 30)) / (6 (x + 3))

(x² + 10x + 21 − 6x − 30) / (6 (x + 3))

(x² + 4x − 9) / (6 (x + 3))

So the simplified form is:

\frac{x^{2} + 4x - 9}{6 (x + 3)}

Are the solutions correct?
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

First one is wrong. x should be 16.

Second one is not completely visible, so cannot say.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the last step, the divison by 4 yields:

x/16 = 1, so x = 16

Factor completely x^4-17x^2+16​
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

(x - 1) (x + 1) (x - 4) (x + 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

actor the following:

x^4 - 17 x^2 + 16

x^4 - 17 x^2 + 16 = (x^2)^2 - 17 x^2 + 16:

(x^2)^2 - 17 x^2 + 16

The factors of 16 that sum to -17 are -1 and -16. So, (x^2)^2 - 17 x^2 + 16 = (x^2 - 1) (x^2 - 16):

(x^2 - 1) (x^2 - 16)

x^2 - 16 = x^2 - 4^2:

(x^2 - 1) (x^2 - 4^2)

Factor the difference of two squares. x^2 - 4^2 = (x - 4) (x + 4):

(x - 4) (x + 4) (x^2 - 1)

x^2 - 1 = x^2 - 1^2:

(x^2 - 1^2) (x - 4) (x + 4)

Factor the difference of two squares. x^2 - 1^2 = (x - 1) (x + 1):

Answer: (x - 1) (x + 1) (x - 4) (x + 4)
