Question 127379: Add. Simplify, if possible.
I think I'm getting thrown off by the exponents. Can you help me?
t+x/tx^2 + 4t+x/t^2x
This is supposed to be set up like fractions on either side of the addition sign. I hope that helps!

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Assume the problem is:
%28%28t%2Bx%29%29%2F%28%28tx%5E2%29%29+%2B+%28%284t%2Bx%29%29%2F%28%28t%5E2x%29%29
:
The common denominator will be: %28t%5E2x%5E2%29
So we have:
%28t%28t%2Bx%29+%2B+x%284t%2Bx%29%29%2F%28%28t%5E2x%5E2%29%29 = %28t%5E2+%2B+tx+%2B+4tx+%2B+x%5E2%29%2F%28%28t%5E2x%5E2%29%29 = %28t%5E2+%2B+5tx+%2B+x%5E2%29%2F%28%28t%5E2x%5E2%29%29; about all you can do with it
