simplify

OpenStudy (bahrom7893):

Simplify this: 2/3(1/2x+9)+3 ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (bahrom7893):

Is 3(1/2x + 9) the whole thing in denominator?

OpenStudy (bahrom7893):

or: 3(1/2x+9)+3 is in denominator?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2/3

OpenStudy (bahrom7893):

oh okay so: \[(2/3)*(1/(2x)+9) + 3\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (bahrom7893):

okay so, first of all simplify (1/2x + 9) , find common denominator, etc..: \[[(2/3)*(1 + 18x)/2x] + 3\]

OpenStudy (bahrom7893):

Now cancel out the 2s: \[[(1 + 18x)/3x] + 3\]

OpenStudy (bahrom7893):

Now find the common denominator again: \[(1 + 18x + 9x)/(3x)\]

OpenStudy (bahrom7893):

\[( 1 + 27x ) / (3x)\]

OpenStudy (bahrom7893):

or: \[(1/3x) + 9\] Please click on become a fan if I helped, I really want to get to the next level!! Thanks =)
