8-2 skills practice adding and subtracting rational expressions

Sagot :

The expressions 3/x + 5/y and 3/(8p^2r) + 5/(4p^2r) are algebraic expressions

The simplified expressions are (3y + 5x)/xy and 13/(4p^2r)

How to solve the rational expressions?

From the complete question (see attachment), we have:

3/x + 5/y

Take the LCM

3/x + 5/y = (3y + 5x)/xy

Also, we have:

3/(8p^2r) + 5/(4p^2r)

Take the LCM

3/(8p^2r) + 5/(4p^2r) = (3 + 10)/(4p^2r)

Evaluate the sum

3/(8p^2r) + 5/(4p^2r) = 13/(4p^2r)

Hence, the simplified expressions are (3y + 5x)/xy and 13/(4p^2r)
