Answer:
First choice is the correct one
Explanation:
The given is:
[(x+5) / (x+2)] - [(x+1) / x(x+2)]
First, we will need to have a common denominator and then we will solve the subtraction normally. To get a common denominator, we will have to multiply both numerator and denominator of first term by x.
Therefore:
[(x+5) / (x+2)] - [(x+1) / x(x+2)] = [x(x+5) / x(x+2)] - [(x+1) / x(x+2)]
= [x(x+5)-(x+1)] / [x(x+2)]
= (x^2 + 5x - x - 1) / [x(x+2)]
= [(x^2 + 4x - 1)] / [x(x+2)]
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
x=9
Step-by-step explanation:
combine like terms
4+5=9
9+6x=7x
to get 6x with 7x subtract 6x from both sides as its positive
6x-6x=0
7x-6x=x
9=x
x=9
X= 4.167 you cross multiply both the equations. so you get 30x - 50x = 10x - 125. you shift all the values of x on side and then divide it by 125 sso you get x= 4.167
