Answer:

x = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

Combine like terms.

5x + 6 = -24

Subtract 6 from both sides.

5x = -30

Divide by 5 on both sides.

x = -6

Find the difference. express your answer in simplest form. (2s/s^2-4s+4) - (4/s^2-4s+4)

LUCKY_DIMON [66]

To find the difference, we are going to destroy the parenthesis first, and then, we are going to perform the operations. Remember that to destroy a parenthesis preceded by a negative sign (-), you should change the signs of the factors inside the parenthesis:
$\frac{2s}{s^2-4s+4} -( \frac{4}{s^2-4s+4} )$
$\frac{2s}{s^2-4s+4} -\frac{4}{s^2-4s+4}= \frac{2s-4}{s^2-4s+4}$

Now we can factor both numerator and denominator and simplify:
$\frac{2s-4}{s^2-4s+4} = \frac{2(s-2)}{(s-2)^2} = \frac{2}{s-2}$

We can conclude that the difference in simplest form is: $\frac{2}{s-2}$
