We have 2 denominators that we need to get rid of. Whenever there are the denominators, all we have to do is multiply all whole equation with the denominators.
Our denominators are both 2 and x+1. Therefore, we multiply the whole equation by 2(x+1)
![\frac{x}{2}[2(x+1)]-\frac{2}{x+1}[2(x+1)] = 1[2(x+1)]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7Bx%7D%7B2%7D%5B2%28x%2B1%29%5D-%5Cfrac%7B2%7D%7Bx%2B1%7D%5B2%28x%2B1%29%5D%20%3D%201%5B2%28x%2B1%29%5D)
Then shorten the fractions.
![\frac{x}{2}[2(x+1)]-\frac{2}{x+1}[2(x+1)] = 1[2(x+1)]\\x(x+1)-2(2)=1(2x+2)](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7Bx%7D%7B2%7D%5B2%28x%2B1%29%5D-%5Cfrac%7B2%7D%7Bx%2B1%7D%5B2%28x%2B1%29%5D%20%3D%201%5B2%28x%2B1%29%5D%5C%5Cx%28x%2B1%29-2%282%29%3D1%282x%2B2%29)
Distribute in all.
We should get like this. Because the polynomial is 2-degree, I'd suggest you to move all terms to one place. Therefore, moving 2x+2 to another side and subtract.
We are almost there. All we have to do is, solving for x by factoring. (Although there are more than just factoring but factoring this polynomial is faster.)
Thus, the answer is x = 3, -2
Answer: total amount of money in commission that the realtor earned is $9375
Step-by-step explanation:
The realtor earns 1.25% commission on the price of any home she sells.
Last month she sold two homes for a total of $750,000
It means that the amount of money in commission that the realtor earned last month would be
1.25/100 × 750 000 = 0.0125 × 750000 = $9375
Answer:
3 ÷ 0.25
Step-by-step explanation:
There are three squares, so 3.
Each square is divided into four squares,
One square out of four squares is,
1 / 4 = 0.25
Therefore,
3 ÷ 0.25
The answer is 2,925
to get the answer: 26*112=2912 .5 equals half an hour so half the pages
so you add 2912 + 13= 2925
Answer:
Two adult tickets and 5 student tickets
Step-by-step explanation:
Let a=adult tickets Let s=student tickets
You know that each adult ticket is $9.10 and each student ticket cost $7.75. At the end, it cost $56.95 for both students and adults so the first equation should be 9.10a+7.75s=56.95. To get the second equation, you know that Mrs. Williams purchased 7 tickets in total that were both students and adults. Therefore, the second equation should be a+s=7. The two equations are 9.10a+7.75s=56.95
a+s=7.
Now, use substitution to solve this. I will isolate s from this equation so the new equation should be s=-a+7. Plug in this equation to the other equation, it will look like this 9.10a+7.75(-a+7)=56.95. Simplify this to get 9.10a-7.75a+54.25=56.95. Simplify this again and the equation will become 1.35a=2.70. Then divide 1.35 by each side to get a=2. This Mrs. Williams bought two adult tickets. Plug in 2 into a+s=7, it will look like this (2)+s=7. Simplify this and get s=5. This means Mrs. Williams bought five adult tickets. Therefore she bought 2 adult tickets and 5 student tickets.
Hope this helps
