Question

Add write the answer in lowest term 5x+2/6x+5 + x+3/6x+5

Answer 1

Recall that:

`(a)/(b)+(c)/(b)=(a+c)/(b)\text{.}`

Therefore we can rewrite the given expression as follows:

`(5x+2+x+3)/(6x+5)\text{.}`

Adding like terms we get:

`(6x+5)/(6x+5)\text{.}`

Finally, assuming that:

`x\\e-(5)/(6),`

we get that:

`(6x+5)/(6x+5)=1.`

Answer:

`(5x+2)/(6x+5)+(x+3)/(6x+5)=1.`
