The first step is to identify the order in which the equation must be solved, by following PEMDAS (you might know it as BEDMAS):
Parenthesis (or Brackets)
Exponents
Multiplication and Division
Addition and Subtraction
My advice would be to add parenthesis, following these rules, if you are not very good at finding them immediately by sight.
So:
![4 - 5 / 2 * (\frac{1}{10x}) = 1\\\\4 - [(5/2)*(\frac{1}{10x})]=1\\\\4-(2.5*\frac{1}{10x})=1\\\\4-\frac{2.5}{10x}-1=0\\3-\frac{x}{4}=0\\\frac{x}{4}=3\\x=3*4\\x=12](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=4%20-%205%20%2F%202%20%2A%20%28%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B10x%7D%29%20%20%3D%201%5C%5C%5C%5C4%20-%20%5B%285%2F2%29%2A%28%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B10x%7D%29%5D%3D1%5C%5C%5C%5C4-%282.5%2A%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B10x%7D%29%3D1%5C%5C%5C%5C4-%5Cfrac%7B2.5%7D%7B10x%7D-1%3D0%5C%5C3-%5Cfrac%7Bx%7D%7B4%7D%3D0%5C%5C%5Cfrac%7Bx%7D%7B4%7D%3D3%5C%5Cx%3D3%2A4%5C%5Cx%3D12)
We check our answer:
![x=12\\4 - [(5 / 2) * (1/10)*(x)] = 1\\4 - [(5 / 2) * (\frac{1}{10}) * (12))] = 1\\4 - [2.5 * (\frac{1}{10})*12] = 1\\4 - [(\frac{2.5}{10})*12] = 1\\4 - [(\frac{1}{4})*12] = 1\\4 - 3 = 1\\1=1](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=x%3D12%5C%5C4%20-%20%5B%285%20%2F%202%29%20%2A%20%281%2F10%29%2A%28x%29%5D%20%3D%201%5C%5C4%20-%20%5B%285%20%2F%202%29%20%2A%20%28%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B10%7D%29%20%2A%20%2812%29%29%5D%20%3D%201%5C%5C4%20-%20%5B2.5%20%2A%20%28%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B10%7D%29%2A12%5D%20%3D%201%5C%5C4%20-%20%5B%28%5Cfrac%7B2.5%7D%7B10%7D%29%2A12%5D%20%3D%201%5C%5C4%20-%20%5B%28%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B4%7D%29%2A12%5D%20%3D%201%5C%5C4%20-%203%20%3D%201%5C%5C1%3D1)
We are right!
So,
.
Solve for v by simplifying both sides of the equation, then isolating the variable.
v = -1
Given the polynomial expression:
(y + 5)²
(y - 5)(y + 5)
Let's simplify each of the given expression:
a.) (y + 5)²
The given equation is a factor of a perfect square trinomial. For this type of expression, the following is the formula for expanding it.

We get,


b.) (y - 5)(y + 5)
To be able to simplify the following expression. We will be using the formula for the difference of two squares.

We get,
