The answer to your question is “false”
You have to divide the numerator (top number) by the denominator (bottom number). For example, 1/2 is 0.5
However, some end up as never-ending decimals, like 1/3, which converts to 0.333 repeating.
Factor the denominator
x^2+3x-10
(x+5)(x-2)
(x-2)/((x+5)(x-2))
The x-2 in the numerator and denominator cancel out.
Final answer: x+5
You multiply both of the equations until you have two of the same term the same like for example, say I have 4x and 5x. You want to multiply until both have the same number, so multiply 5x by four, then multiply 4x by five, and you will get 20x, then both of those cancel out and you will be left with the other variable, and you just solve like a normal equation.
Answer:
x = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
40 + 6x + 2 = 90 {Complementary angles}
Combine like terms
40+ 2 + 6x = 90
42 +6x = 90 {Subtract 42 form both sides}
6x = 90 - 42
6x = 48 {divide both sides by 6}
6x/6 = 48/6
x = 8
