(x/sqrt(x^2+1)+1)/(x+sqrt(x^2+1)) simplify (x/sqrt(x^2+1)+1)/(x+sqrt(x^2+1)) simplify @Mathematics
plz show steps
type using equation tool
\[\frac{\frac{x}{\sqrt{x^2+1}+1}}{x+\sqrt{x^2+1}}\]?
yeah it looks like that
except the 1 is outside the squareroot
numerator
so both ones?
Is it sqrt for both the ones?
here you type go to equation button below and for fraction do frac{something}{stuff} and if you want square root of something do sqrt{something}
\[\frac{\frac{x}{\sqrt{x^2+1}}+1}{x+\sqrt{x^2+1}}\]
multiply top and bottom by sqrt(x^2+1)
\[(x+1)^{-1}\]
\[\frac{\frac{x}{\sqrt{x^2+1}}+1}{x+\sqrt{x^2+1}} \cdot \frac{\sqrt{x^2+1}}{\sqrt{x^2+1}}\]
ok
\[\frac{x+\sqrt{x^2+1}}{x \sqrt{x^2+1}+(x^2+1)}\]
im following
\[\frac{x+\sqrt{x^2+1}}{x \sqrt{x^2+1}+(x^2+1)} \cdot \frac{x \sqrt{x^2+1}-(x^2+1)}{x \sqrt{x^2+1}-(x^2+1)}\] \[\frac{(x+\sqrt{x^2+1})(x \sqrt{x^2+1}-(x^2+1))}{x^2 (x^2+1)-(x^2+1)^2}\] \[=\frac{(x+\sqrt{x^2+1})(x \sqrt{x^2+1}-(x^2+1))}{x^4+x^2-(x^4+2x^2+1)}\] \[=\frac{(x+\sqrt{x^2+1})(x \sqrt{x^2+1}-(x^2+1))}{-x^2-1}\] \[=\frac{(x+\sqrt{x^2+1})(x \sqrt{x^2+1}-(x^2+1))}{-(x^2+1)}\]
\[=\frac{x^2 \sqrt{x^2+1}-x(x^2+1)+x(x^2+1)-(x^2+1)^{\frac{1}{2}+1}}{-(x^2+1)}\] \[=\frac{x^2 \sqrt{x^2+1}-(x^2+1)^\frac{3}{2}}{-(x^2+1)}\]
\[=\frac{\sqrt{x^2+1}(x^2-(x^2+1))}{-(x^2+1)}=\frac{\sqrt{x^2+1}(-1)}{-(x^2+1)}\]
ok it makes sense
\[=\frac{\sqrt{x^2+1}}{x^2+1}\]
does it really i did a lot of stuff you followed that? if so thats real good
im double checking
ok i did multiply top and bottom by the conjugate of the bottom to rationalize the bottom did you notice that?
you know after i got rid of the compound fraction action
yeah i got those parts
i just wanted to compare with my answer
ok
i actually had to think on can i simplify this more after i got to a certain point i like paused for 5 seconds lol
i know what you mean
my paper right now is filled with a bunch of unnecesary moves
i made it worse than the original statement
sometimes it takes unnecessary steps to see you are going to a deadend
yeah i know what you mean, but i really messed up this problem but i got a different answer.
well i feel confident in my answer
whops wrong equation
hey i'm going to go to bed
just make a new thread k?
thx alot 4 your help
np
btw how do u get achievements?
thats a good question i don't see the page that tells you what you need to do in order to receive achievement awards
post it in the feedback section one of the admins will tell you
you might have to wait a day for a reply
ive been here for three days and answered 100s of questions
and went up to lvl 13, its kinda like a game lol
i enjoy helping though
an addictive game
a challenge at times
ok off to brush my teeth
the easy questions aren't really worth answering though,
