would some one please check these for me
1. divide x^2-36y^2 over 5x^2+30y divide (x^2-6xy)
A: x+6y over (5x)(x^2+6y)
2. Add. Express your answer in simplest form.
2x 0ver x^2+15x+54 + 4over x+6
A: 6 over x+9
3. solve: (9 over x-5) -1= 8 over x+5
A: -10 and 11
This one I am having problems with a lot
4. Simplify 6/8 over 2/18
this is what I did would you please see if I did this right

5. Subtract 7 over y-3 -1 over y+1
A: is 2(3y+5) over (y-3)(y+1)
6. What values for x must be excluded in the following fraction?
x+2 over x^2-9x+14
A: 2 and 7
7. Solve. x over 3 - x over 4 =4
A: x=48
8.Solve. 7 over x-9 + 4 = 3 over x-9
A: 8 and 9
9.solve x+1 over 18 = 1 over 3
A: 5
10.If one-half a number is subtracted from five-sixths of the number, the difference is 6. Find the number.
A: 5/6n - 1/2n=6
n= 18
I checked just this one since you were having so much trouble with it. See below.
4. Simplify 6/8 over 2/18
this is what I did would you please see if I did this right
6/8
over
2/18
6/8
over
1/9
9*6/8 OK to here
9+3/4 You changed the * sign to + sign. Should be 9*3/4 = 27/4
9*4/4+3/4
36/4+3/4
39/4
I would have done it this way.
(6/8)/(2/18) =
(6/8)*(18/2) =
(3/4)*(9) = 27/4
Yes, your answer for question 4 is incorrect. Here's how to correctly simplify the expression:
To simplify a fraction divided by another fraction, you can multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction.
So, we have:
(6/8) / (2/18)
To find the reciprocal of a fraction, we simply switch the numerator and denominator. So, the reciprocal of 2/18 is 18/2.
Now, we can multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal:
(6/8) * (18/2)
When multiplying fractions, we multiply the numerators together and the denominators together. So, we have:
(6 * 18) / (8 * 2)
Simplifying further, we get:
108 / 16
To simplify, we can divide both numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor. In this case, the greatest common divisor of 108 and 16 is 4.
Dividing 108 by 4 gives us 27, and dividing 16 by 4 gives us 4.
So, the simplified form of (6/8) / (2/18) is 27/4.
Therefore, your answer should be 27/4, or you can also express it as a mixed number, 6 3/4.
