Question

factor: ((1/x)-1) / (x-1)

Answer 1

-1/x

Answer 2

can you show me the steps in how you reached that answer?

Answer 3

yes i can show u BOVICE

Answer 4

LET US SOLVE FIRSTLY THE NUMERATOR:
1/x -1 = (1-x)/1
AND DENOMINATOR : (x-1)
(1-x)/(x-1)
that is -1/x

Answer 5

have u got it

Answer 6

IS IT CLEAR TO U IF YES THEN TELL ME

Answer 7

no its not

Answer 8

1/x -1 does not equal (1-x)/1

Answer 9

why

Answer 10

\[1 \div (x-1) \]

Answer 11

no. reread the question. ((1/x)-1)/(x-1)

Answer 12

((1/x)-1)/(x-1)=((1-x)/x)/(x-1)=(1-x)/x x 1/(x-1) --- because
(1/b)/c =(1/b)x(1/c)=1/bc --- hence you get (1-x)/x x 1/(x-1)=(-(x-1))/x x 1/(x-1)
after you have simplified with (x-1) you get -1/x
hope that you have understood it
