OpenStudy (anonymous):

its infinite

OpenStudy (godlovesme):

ohhh sorry :(

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh no its ok you tried

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok tell me hoew its infinite

OpenStudy (anonymous):

multiply 1/5*5 and 1/5*25 and you will get 1a+5 which is simply a+5 then you can subtract a 5 from either sided which would leave you with a=a

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):
