I have to simplify a ton of equations for my math class, and I am going crazy after 24 of them. Help would be greatly apreciated. 1: (2x^2+8/2x^2-12)-(5x-6-x^2/x^2+2x-8) 2: (4x-5/x^2+x-12)+(9/18-3x-x^2)+(2/x^2+10x+24) 3: (1/2x^2+11x+15)+(6x+7/3x^2+7x-6)-(19/6x^2+11x-10) 4: (m+n/m^2-mn+n^2)-(1/m+n)+(3m^2/m^3+n^3) 5: (3x+2y/x^2+3xy-10y^2)-(5x+y/x^2+4xy-5y^2)+(4x-y/x^2-3xy+2y^2)

OpenStudy (vuriffy):

Let me do one for you.

OpenStudy (gnsa95):

I would appreciate that!! Thank you @Vuriffy

OpenStudy (vuriffy):

@gnsa95 Do you understand how to do them?

OpenStudy (gnsa95):

yes! I am just tired, and I have a ton of other homework to do @Vuriffy . I am just overwhelmed by now.

OpenStudy (vuriffy):

Glance at this.

OpenStudy (vuriffy):

Do you understand how they got to those values for number 1?

OpenStudy (gnsa95):

I'll have to doble check and show all the work for that. But I'll prably figure it out.. Thank you so much!

OpenStudy (gnsa95):

probably*

OpenStudy (vuriffy):

Do you mind working out one with me? It seems it would just be easier, don't you think? This allows for you to have the steps and I may be able to correct you on any errors. I know you may be tired, but effort is required. I don't wish to discourage you, but help you further in this process.

OpenStudy (gnsa95):

I agree!! Thank you ONCE again (:

OpenStudy (vuriffy):

Which one would you like to give a go at?

OpenStudy (gnsa95):

# 1 is fine :)

OpenStudy (vuriffy):

\[(2x^2+8)/(2x^2-12)-(5x-6-x^2)/(x^2+2x-8)\]

OpenStudy (vuriffy):

What do you believe you should do to start this one?

OpenStudy (vuriffy):

Well, if you wish to do each part separate, we could. (2x^2 + 8)/(2x^2 - 12) which easily simplifies to (x^2 + 4)/(x^2 - 6) which is acquired by dividing each by 2 and resulting in a value of alternative form.

OpenStudy (vuriffy):

What you do to one side, you do to the other.

OpenStudy (gnsa95):

Okay, I did it all.. I know how to do it.. It's just alot of work haha.. Thank you!!!

OpenStudy (vuriffy):

Sorry for not swiftly stating the answers, I only wish to help you grasp the concept then exclaim the answer right away. You have an wonderful night. @gnsa95

OpenStudy (gnsa95):

Oh no, it's okay. Thank you! (:
