Question

(6/x+2)+4/(8/x+2)-4

Answer 1

when you divide by a fraction, you can get rid of it by flipping it and mulitplying.
4/(8/x+2)=4(x+2)/8

Answer 2

i dont think there is any equal sign in thsi equation

Answer 3

i know that but this is complex fractions;
i got majority of the problem solved , i'm just stuck where i'm at; i'm trying to follow my book, like my teacher/professor wants.

Answer 4

so from 6/(x+2) + (x+2)/2 - 4

Answer 5

12/2(x+2) + (x+2)^2/2(x+2) - 8(x+2)/2(x+2)

Answer 6

(12+(x+2)^2-8x-16)/2(x+2)

Answer 7

(6/x+2 )+4(8/x+2) -4

(6/x+2) +(x+2/2) -4

taking l.c.m

6(2) +(x+2)(x+2) -4(2(x+2)) / 2(x+2)

x^2+ 4x / 2(x+2)

x(x+2)/2(x+2)

x/2
