1/1=1 SLOPE IS 1
NOW SUBSTITUTE ONE SET OF POINTS IN THE EQUATION Y=mX+b TO FIND THE Y INTERCEPT
3=1+b
b=3-1
b=2 THUS WE HAVE THE LINE EQUATION
AN ADDITIONAL POINT ON THIS LINE CAN BE FOUND BY SETTING Y=0 THUS

Equations/65574: Solve and check the equation for X
x - x+1 = 8
--- ----- -----
x-2 x x^2-2x
I would first cross out the two x's
Leaving the equation looking like:
0 x+1 = 8
---- - ----- -----
x-2 0 x^2-2x
To go from here I believe I would add x+1= 1x
and subtract x-2 which equals -2x
The equation would look like this:
-2x - 1x = 8
-----
x^2-2x
From here I am lost but I think I became lost a while ago

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
X/(X-2)-(X+1)/X=8/(X^2-2X) COMBINE THE FRACTONS ON THE LEFT SIDE OF THE EQUATION & FACTORING THE DENOMINATOR OF THE RIGHT SIDE WE GET
[(X^2)-(X+1)(X-2)]/X(X-2)=8/X(X-2) BECAUSE THE DENOMINATORS ARE EQUAL WE CAN SET THE NUMERATORS EQUAL THUS
X^2-(X^2-X-2)=8
X^2-X^2+X+2=8
X=8-2
X=6 SOLUTION
PROOF
6/(6-2)-(6+1)/6=8/(6^2-2*6)
6/4-7/6=8/(36-12)
6/4-7/6=8/24
6/4-7/6=1/3

2/(X+2)=3/(X+6)+9/(X^2+8X+12)
2/(X+2)=3/(X+6)+9/(X+6)(X+2)
2/(X+2)=[3(X+2)+9]/(X+6)(X+2) CANCEL OUT THE (X+2) IN BOTH DENOMINATORS THUS
2=[3(X+2)+9]/X+6) NOW CROSS MULTIPLY
2(X+6)=3(X+2)+9
2X+12=3X+6+9
2X-3X=-12+15

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
2/5=X-2/20 THE EASIEST WAY TO SOLVE THIS EQUATION IS TO CONVERT ALL NUMBERS TO DECIMAL .
THUS 2/5=0.4 & 2/20=0.1
0.4=X-0.1
X=0.4+0.1
X=0.5 OR 1/2
PROOF
2/5=1/2-2/20
2/5=(10-2)/20
2/5=8/20 CROSS MULTIPLY
40=40
---------------------------------------------------
IF YOU MUST WORK IN FRATIONS THEN
2/5=X-2/20
X=2/5+2/20 FIND A COMMON DENOMINATOR (20)
X=(8+2)/20
X=10/20
X=1/2

DISTANCE=RATE*TIME
360=R(T+2)
270=RT SOLVING FOR R IN THIS EQUATION WE GET
R=270/T NOW SUBSTITUTING (270/T) FOR R IN THE FIRST EQUATION WE GET
360=(270/T)(T+2)
360=(270T+540)/T
360T=270T+540
360T-270T=540
90T=540
T=540/90

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
R=1/[(1/R1)+(1/R2)] SO IF THE TWO RESISTERS ARE 50 & 100 OHMS THEN
R=1/[(1/50)+1/100)]
R=1/[(2+1)/100]
R=1/(3/100)
R=1*(100/3)
R=100/3
R=33 1/3 OHMS.
------------------------------------------
IF BOTH RESISTERS ARE 500 OHMS THEN
R=1/[(1/500)+(1/500)]
R=1/(2/500)
R=1*500/2
R=500/2
R=250 OHMS.

IF you have (4^2)x+1=(2^3)x+6 then
16x+1=8x+6
16x-8x=6-1
8x=5
x=5/8
proof
16*5/8+1=8*5/8+6

[(w+3)/4w]/(w+3)/2w to divide a fraction by a fraction you need to invert the lower fraction and multiply the two fractions thus
[(w+3)/4w]
[(w+3)*2w]/[(w+3)*4w now you can cancel out the (w+3)and the 2w from the 4w leaving only
1/2w

(x-2)^2(x+7)/(x-2)(x+7)(x-8) expanding the (x-2)^2 to (x-2)(x-2) we have
(x-2)(x-2)(x+7)/(x-2)(x+7)(x+8) now factor out the (x-2) & the (x+7) we have left
(x-2)/(x+8)

4y/(y+5)(y+1)+2y/(y+1)(y-1) multiply the second fraction by (y+5) & multiply ther first fraction by (y-1) thus you now have a common denominator & can now add the numerators.
[(2y)(y+5)+4y(y-1)]/(y+5)(y+1)(y-1)
(2y^2+5y+4y^2-4y)/(y-5)(y+1)(y-1)
6y^2+y)/(y-5)(y+1)(y-1) factor out the y fron the numerator.
y(6y+1)/(y+5)(y+1)(y-1)
