Question

Whats the error explain why please help!

Answer 1

`(3x+10)/(x+4)`

Explanation:

Since the two term's denominator's are equal, we multiply each numerator by how many times the denominator goes into the denominator LCM:

`=((x-1)-(4x-11))/(x+4)`

#We open the numerator bracket.

*A -ve sign before the bracket changes every sign in the bracket to its opposite, hence:

`=(x-1-4x+11)/(x+4)\\\\=(x-4x-1+11)/(x+4)\\\\=(3x+10)/(x+4)`

The terms can not be simplified any further and thus the final solution is

`(3x+10)/(x+4)`

#We can not solve for x since the expression is not equated to any variable.
