Describe and correct the error in solving the following rational equation , plz help!!!!!
aleksley [76]

First of all, x cannot ever equal -1 because if it does then in the original equation you'd be dividing by 0, which is not possible. anything divided by 0 is undefined.

I think the error was in the second step: x(x+1) = 2(x+1) because they didn't need to go from the first step to there. I'm assuming they multiplied both sides of the equation with (x+1) to get rid of the fraction, but since both sides have (x+1) as the denominator the (x+1) would've cancelled out instead of multiplying with the numerator.

Correction:

\frac{x}{x+1} = \frac{2}{x+1}\\(\frac{x+1}{1}) (\frac{x}{x+1}) = (\frac{2}{x+1})(\frac{x+1}{1}) \\x = 2

as u can see, in the second step of this correction, the (x+1)s on both sides cancel out so only the numerators remain.

Hope this helps!

Easy Bucks... <br>For what values of y does the binomial 3y−5 belong to the interval (−1; 1)?
kati45 [8]

3y-5 = -1

3y=4

y = 4/3


3y-5 = 1

3y = 6

y = 2


y must be between 4/3  and 2

y must be between 1  1/3 and 2

Write an algebraic expression for each statement:
Andrei [34K]

For the given sentences, the algebraic expressions are:

a) N = 110*c - 300

b) N = 12*b

<h3>How to get the algebraic expressions?</h3>

For the first statement:

A 3-digit number, where the tens digit is c, can be written as:

N = 100*a + 10*c + b

Then the hundreds digit is a, and here we know that is 3 less than the tens digit, then:

a = c - 3

The ones digit is b, here we know that it is 0, then b = 0.

Replacing that in our number we get:

N = 100*(c - 3) + 10*c = 110*c - 300

N = 110*c - 300

That is the algebraic expression.

b) A two-digit number can be written as:

N = b*10 + a

Where b is the tens digit and a is the ones digit.

Here we know that the units digit is twice as bit as the tens digit, then:

a = 2b

Replacing that we get:

N = b*10 + a = b*10 + 2b = 12*b

N = 12*b

That is the algebraic expression.
