All that you need to do is combine like terms
Please include the instructions; I assume your job is to find the value of x.
<span>1/(x+1) - 1/(x+2) = 1/2 would better be written as
1 1 1
</span><span>-------- - ------------ = ----
x+1 x+2 2
Identify the LCD. It is (x+1)(x+2)(2). Mult. all 3 terms of the equation by this LCD:
2(x+2) - 2(x+1) = 2(x+1)(x+2)
We can factor out the 2 from all terms:
x+2 - x - 1 = x^2 + 3x + 2
Let's move all terms from the left to the right side:
0 = x^2 + 3x + 2 - x - 2 + x + 1
Then x^2 + 3x + 1 = 0. This is a quadratic with a=1, b=3 and c=1.
What is x?
-3 plus or minus sqrt( 9-4(1)(1) ) -3 plus or minus sqrt(5)
x = --------------------------------------------- = ---------------------------------
2 2
I rather expected to obtain an integer value for x.
Why don't you give this problem a try yourself? Suggestion: First mult. every term by 2. This will give you:
2 2
------- - ------- = 1 and this may be slightly easier to work with. Please
x+1 x+2 give it a try: try to find x that satisfies this equation.
Important: note that x cannot equal either -1 or -2.

Answer:
x < 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
2: x=6
3: x=5
Step-by-step explanation:
Question 1 is answered in the picture, but the answer is 6
<h2>Question 2:</h2>
x=14.3-(6.3+2)
x=14.3-8.3
x=6
<h2>Question 3:</h2>
x=20.6-(8.6+7)
x=20.6-15.6
x=5
