Question

Enter the values for the highlighted variables that show how to subtract the rational expressions correctly

Answer 1

Answer:

a =  6

b =  2

c =  6

d =  2

e =  6

f =  6

g=1

Step-by-step explanation:

a = 6

x^2 + 6x is equal to x(x+6)

b=2

Denominator and numerator of the first term are multiplied by x. 

c=6

Second term is multiplied by (x-6)/(x-6)

d=2

Now that they have the same denominator, the two terms are combined. 2 is the coefficient of the first term

e=6

In the same way as d is carried over from b, e is carried over from c. 

f = 6

2x - x + 6 = x + 6

g = 1 

We factor out the (x+6) from the numerator and denominator

Answer 2

A = 6
x^2 + 6x is equal to x(x+6)
b=2
Denominator and numerator of the first term are multiplied by x. 
c=6
Second term is multiplied by (x-6)/(x-6)
d=2
Now that they have the same denominator, the two terms are combined. 2 is the coefficient of the first term
e=6
In the same way as d is carried over from b, e is carried over from c. 
f = 6
2x - x + 6 = x + 6
g = 1 
We factor out the (x+6) from the numerator and denominator
