1) factor the denominators: 2b/(b-1)2 - 2/ (b-1)2
2) MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A COMMON DENOMINATOR
3) combine the numerators: 2b-2/(b-1)2
4) distribute 2 from numerator: 2(b-1)/(b-1)2
5) simplify; answer is 2/(b-1)
Answer:
C, D
Step-by-step explanation:
This equation can be solved any of several ways. One that doesn't require much thought is using the quadratic formula.
For ax² +bx +c = 0, the solutions are ...
In the given equation, a=2, b=11, c=5, so this becomes ...
The solutions are ...
C. x = -5
D. x = -1/2
_____
My personal favorite is using a graphing calculator. The solutions are the x-intercepts of the expression on the left. That is, where its value is zero, as the equation says.
<span>Slope-intercept form is Y = MX + B. This is in standard form, AX + BY = C. You have to move the X to the other side of the equation and simplify it. </span>
<span>10x - 2y = 10 </span>
<span>- 10x - 10x Subtract 10x from both sides </span>
<span>- 2y = - 10x + 10 Now everything is in the right place, but it still needs to be simplified. </span>
<span>Divide each term by -2, in order to isolate the variable Y. </span>
<span>- 2y/ - 2 = - 10x/ - 2 + 10/ - 2 </span>
<span>The answer is: y = 5x - 5</span>
Answer: (0,−6),(1,−9/2),(2,−3)
I’m pretty sure these are it!
