Question

Please help! Simplify:
10/x+1
-------
1/2-7/x+1

Answer 1

hard to read. maybe
\[\frac{\frac{10}{x+1}}{\frac{1}{2}-\frac{7}{x+1}}\]?

Answer 2

2x+20/3x-14

Answer 3

Yes! :) That's it.

Answer 4

if so, multiply top and bottom by x + 1 carefully. you get
\[\frac{10}{\frac{1}{2}(x+1)-7}\]

Answer 5

10/x+15? 10/x-13?

Answer 6

now maybe multiply top and bottom by 2 to get
\[\frac{20}{(x+1)-14}\]
\[\frac{20}{x-13}\]

Answer 7

Oh, I see. Thank you so much! :)
