Write them here
Well...here's a little hint,... use common denominators!
I'm not sure how...
whaat i told u this already didnt i
nooo... lol
...
oh hey dan.
hey! teach him common denominator T_T
Dan Jhanny was helping me on a different question I reposted this.
i will, just give me a little time.
2/(x-3) -4/(x+3) [2(x+3)-4(x-3)]/(x-3)(x+3) (-2x+18)/(x-3)(x+3) -2(x-9)/(x-3)(x+3)=-2(x-9)/(x^2-9) |x| not equal to 3
Thanks! I got the first part just needed some guidance
Wait isn't the restriction x does not equal 9
@KenLJW
So for this one you will be solving for x. \[\frac{ 2 }{ (x-3) }-\frac{ 4 }{ (x+3) }=\frac{ 8 }{ (x^2-9) }\]\[\frac{ 2\color{red}{(x+3)} }{ \color{red}{(x-3)(x+3)}}-\frac{ 4\color{red}{(x-3)} }{ \color{red}{(x-3)(x+3)} }=\frac{ 8 }{ \color{red}{(x^2-9)} }\]\[\large \frac{ 2x+6 }{ \color{red}{(x^2-9)} }-\frac{ 4x-12 }{ \color{red}{(x^2-9)} }= \frac{ 8 }{ \color{red}{(x^2-9)} }\] combine the two fractions on the left hand side. \[\large \frac{ (2x+6)-(4x-12) }{ \color{red}{(x^2-9)} }= \frac{ 8 }{ \color{red}{(x^2-9)} }\] Simplify \[\large \frac{ 2x-4x-6 }{ \color{red}{(x^2-9)} }=\frac{ 8 }{ \color{red}{(x^2-9)} }\]\[\large \frac{ -2x-6 }{ \color{red}{(x^2-9)} }= \frac{ 8 }{ \color{red}{(x^2-9)} }\] Now you'll be solving for x,so you'll move the fraction on the right over to the left \[\large \frac{ -2x-6 }{ \color{red}{(x^2-9)} }-\frac{ 8 }{ \color{red}{(x^2-9)} }=0\]
OHHH
See above x^2-9 can't be 0 |x| not equal 3
\[\large \frac{ -2x-14 }{ \color{red}{(x^2-9)} }\]\[\large \color{green}{-2}(x+7) = 0\] and \[\large \color{red}{(x^2-9)}=0\]
practice ur algebra get fast!
yes, remember, \[\large \sqrt{x^2} = |x|\]
Jhan are you indian?
@Jhannybean
she is angelian
from the land of angels xD
I'm an alien.
Ken got the right format, that |x| = 3
lol
