4 6x-4 2+ -- = ----- x+2 x^2-4
Factorize the numerator and the denominator of the second fraction.
@kc_kennylau thank you so much for all the help like honestly
no problem :)
4 2(3x-2) 2+ -- = ------- x+2 (x-2) (x+2)
Make 2 a fraction with denominator being x+2.\(\left(a=\dfrac {ax}x\right)\)
2(x+2) (x-2) ---------- (x+2)(x-2)
you mean: 2(x+2) (x-2) 4 2(3x-2) ----------+---=---------- (x+2)(x-2) x+2 (x-2)(x+2)
does it come out to be 2( x+2) (x-2)+4(x-2)=2x3(x-2)(x+2) ------------ (x+2) (x-2)
no
It comes out to be 2+4(x-2)=2(3x-2)
oh
how did you get that
2(x+2) (x-2) 4 2(3x-2) ----------+---=---------- (x+2)(x-2) x+2 (x-2)(x+2) 2(x+2) (x-2) 4(x-2) 2(3x-2) ----------+---------=---------- (x+2)(x-2) (x+2)(x-2) (x-2)(x+2) 2(x+2)(x-2)+4(x-2)=2(3x-2) Sorry for my mistake.
why do you loose the denominator in the last step?
I multiplied the whole equation by (x+2)(x-2).
which side of the equation
both.
so that the equality is still valid.
oh then i did this completely wrong
ok so would it be one of those fractional equations that you multiply the denominator toboth sides
ok so i got 2(x+2)(x-2)+4(x-2)=2(3x-2)
yep, that's the same with mine
okay thanks so much
