Question

`(3)/(2x) - \frac{1}{8 {x}^(2) }`If possible, a step by step for this would help immensely so I could do the rest of the problems like this one.

Answer 1

Problem

Solution

For this case we can take common factor in the denominator 2x and we got:

`(1)/(2x)((3)/(1)-(1)/(4x))`

Then we can solve the fractions with this operation:

`(1)/(2x)((3\cdot4x-1\cdot1)/(1\cdot4x))=(1)/(2x)((12x-1)/(4x))`

then we can simplify on this way:

`(12x-1)/(6x^2)`
