will be
9(y-5)-6(y+5)
------------- = 6/(y2 -25)
y2 -25
9y-45-6y-30=6
3y=-69
y= -23
jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):
but before all y not can being -5 and 5
OpenStudy (anonymous):
actually the equation is...\[9 \over y+5\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\[6 \over y-5\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\[=6 \over y^2-25\]

yes but you see that the denominator common will be y2 -25=(y-5)(y+5)
jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):
and hence the first fraction you need multiply by y-5 and second fraction by y+5
jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):
right ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
but the answer you have does not match up with any of the multiple choice answers
jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):
make the calcule newly

will be 9(y-5)-6(y+5)=6
jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):
so 9y-45-6y-30=6
3y-75=6
3y=81
y=27
ok i see the was what i have doit wrong sorry
jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):
now is right ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
