SOLUTION: m(x)=6x-9 and k(x)=2-3x/6x Find and simplify: (m-k)(x) I think it starts off this way: (m-k)(x)=m(x)-k(x) = (6x-9)-(2-3x)/(6x) This is as far as I can get...can someon

Question 372754: m(x)=6x-9 and k(x)=2-3x/6x
Find and simplify: (m-k)(x)
I think it starts off this way:
(m-k)(x)=m(x)-k(x)
= (6x-9)-(2-3x)/(6x)
This is as far as I can get...can someone please walk me thru this step by step? I posted this earlier but I set the equation up incorrectly. Thank you.

Just like with fractions you need a common denominator.
In this case,

So then

So far, perfect.

The common denominator is , so:

And that is all there is.

My calculator said it, I believe it, that settles it
