From leah: If 6/x - (x-1)/2 = 4
then the LCD is 2x, right?
so you get 12/2x - (x2-x)/2x = 8x/2x, right?
then what do you do with the 2x when you turn it into a quadratic equation? Answered by Penny Nom.
From Bob: while looking at x=(y2-b2)/2b on a table I was preparing for a graph, I saw that there is a point where x and y get closer to each other's value. By trial and error I tried to find the point where x=y. I saw a number which looked familiar and I realized it was the square root of 2. and so, if y=b(1+square root of 2) then x=b(1+square root of 2) also, or as x=y.
My question is: How can this result x=y when y=b(1+square root of 2) be algebraically derived from the equation x=(y2-b2)/2b without pre knowing it is so? Answered by Penny Nom.
I'm doing a practice test question and the answer I keep turning out is different from the answer on the answer sheet. I think I might be forgetting a step. The problem is:
3A/4 +1=(2A-1)/3
The answer is -16. If anyone could explain the steps to me to getting the answer I would be grateful. Whenever I do it I get something completely different.
