Answer:
a = 16
Step-by-step explanation:
6 = a/4 + 2
4 = a/4 Subtract 2 from both sides
16 = a Multiply 4 to both sides
Answer:
D) no solution
Step-by-step explanation:
1/ (x-2) + 1/(x+2) = 4/(x^2-4)
x cannot equal 2 or -2 since that would make our fractions equal 1/0 or be undefined
Factor the term on the right
1/ (x-2) + 1/(x+2) = 4/(x-2)(x+2)
Multiply both sides by (x-2) (x+2)
(x-2) (x+2) (1/ (x-2) + 1/(x+2)) = 4/(x-2)(x+2)*(x-2) (x+2)
Distribute
x+2 + (x-2) = 4
Combine like terms
2x = 4
Divide by 2
2x/2 = 4/2
x =2
But this is not a possible solution since that is not in the domain
Answer:
A is the one with variables.
It would be -8/10 because
16/20 when simplified is 8/10
4/5 when doubled is 8/10
-8/-10 is still 0.8 which is also 8/10 (-8 divided by -10 = 0.8)
To solve for x in the given equation;

We start by collecting like terms, as follows;

When a number crosses the sign of equality, the sign in front of it switches. Positive numbers becomes negative, and vice versa.
We would now have;

ANSWER:
The answer is x = -8
