What is the LCD of this rational expressions:
\n" ); document.write( "7/(x+4)+1/x=8
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "LCM = x(x+4)
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply thru by the LCM to get:
\n" ); document.write( "7x + (x+4) = 8x(x+4)
\n" ); document.write( "8x+4 = 8x^2+32x
\n" ); document.write( "8x^2+24x-4 = 0
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "2x^2+6x-1 = 0
\n" ); document.write( "---
