OpenStudy (anonymous):
on the bottom, then the top
OpenStudy (anonymous):

what does that leave you with.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
2
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yup so you have 4x/2

OpenStudy (anonymous):
then add 2x to 9x
OpenStudy (anonymous):
11x
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so you have (4x/2)/11x*5
OpenStudy (anonymous):
that's how simple it can get without having the value of x
OpenStudy (anonymous):
?

OpenStudy (anonymous):
the answer is what i typed above
OpenStudy (anonymous):
(4x/2)/11x*5
OpenStudy (anonymous):
would it be 4x divided by 11x divided by 2 * 5 (if tried to put the liketerms together?)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i don't believe you can combine 4x and 11x because they are separated by the division
OpenStudy (anonymous):
associative property of addition?
